Ashok Ranjan Basu (Editor) Satish Nijhawan (Editor)
Synopsis The present volume is a collection of some highly informative and thought-provoking papers contributed by nineteen experts on the theme of Tribal Development in India’. The term Tribal’ used by the authors in their papers. Represents those communities or groups which have been included in the list of Scheduled Tribes in the Indian Constitution. Tribal areas of India present an extremely complex socio-economic situation. During the pre-Independence days, the tribal areas were grossly neglected and chronically backward but after Independence, a special treatment was given to these areas. They were reorganized and the governors of states were given regulation-making powers for tribal development administration. The main thrust during the first three five Year Plans was on economic development while in the Fourth Plan a specific target group development approach was adopted. For Tribal development attention should be focused on equitable distribution of wealth, full utilization of manpower and better use of natural resources. The book gives a masterly exposition of the subject and contains very useful information about how tribal development took the present shape through various Five Year Plans. Useful suggestions have been advanced by the specialists whose papers have been included in this volume. Some comprehensive suggestions have been made by them for poverty alleviation and economic uplift of the tribals.
