Introduction
For the
legal term, see Scheduled Tribes .Adivasi is an umbrella
term for a heterogeneous set of ethnic and tribal groups claimed to be the aboriginal
population of India. They comprise a substantial indigenous minority of the
population of India. Adivasi societies are particularly present in Andhra
Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra,
Odisha, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal and some north-eastern states, and
the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Many smaller tribal groups are quite sensitive
to ecological degradation caused by modernization. Both commercial forestry and
intensive agriculture have proved destructive to the forests that had endured wideness
agriculture for many centuries. And The
Constitution of India, Article 366 (25) defines Scheduled Tribes as "such
tribes or tribal communities or part of or groups within such tribes or tribal
communities as are deemed under Article 342 to the scheduled Tribes (STs) for
the purposes of this Constitution". In Article 342, the procedure to be
followed for specification of a scheduled tribe is prescribed. However, it does
not contain the criterion for the specification of any community as scheduled
tribe. The terms "aborigines" or
"tribes", the word "adivasi" has developed a connotation of
past autonomy which was disrupted during the British colonial period in India
and has not been restored. WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to
constitute India into a 1[SOVEREIGN SOCIALIST SECULAR DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC] and to secure to all its citizens:
JUSTICE, social, economic and political; LIBERTY of thought, expression,
belief, faith and worship; EQUALITY of status and of opportunity; and to
promote among them all FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and
the 2[unity and integrity of the Nation];IN OUR CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY this
twenty sixth day of November, 1949, do HEREBY ADOPT,ENACT AND GIVE TO OURSELVES
THIS CONSTITUTION. Indian constitution is very very important but the constitution
of India not implement. So Adivasi are social, economic, political, education,
Religion not develop in India because forest, water, land control the ruling
government of India. And the 5th and 6th schedule of the Indian constitution
provides some special rights to the tribal population for preservation of their
culture and their overall development. According to the 73rd and 74th amendment
of Indian constitution, Municipal Corporation and Panchayti Raj system cannot
function in the Scheduled area of 9 Indian states. Also the PPESA ACT 1996 is
not being implemented in scheduled areas. So again the constitution of India
and violation of tribal Rights.
