The tribal communities in India, commonly known as ‘Scheduled Tribes,’ are identified and categorized as such due to historical socio-economic disparities and cultural distinctiveness. The term “Scheduled Tribes” originates from the Constitution of India, which recognized the need for special attention and protective measures for these marginalized groups. The framers of the Constitution acknowledged the unique challenges faced by tribal populations, such as economic backwardness, social discrimination, and geographical isolation, leading to their inclusion in a scheduled list for targeted developmental interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
