The tribal population in India, though a numerically small minority, represents an enormous diversity of groups. They share common dialects, common culture and at the same time vary in different aspects like- the size of the population, modes of making a livelihood, level of development, social stratification, etc. Since British rule, the tribal population has faced segregation. From being employed in tea gardens in Northeast to post-independence, much progress in the socio-economic, health, and education has not been noted.
In the post-Independence period, sincere efforts were made for the economic and educational development of tribes but still, the performance of the tribes in education is much lower than the Scheduled Castes and non-scheduled tribal population. They had been subjected to various forms of deprivation such as alienation from land and other resources. Tribal women, in particular, had also been facing deprivation of various basic amenities like- health issues, water availability, primary education, etc.
The Xaxa Committee set up in 2013 under the chairmanship of Prof. Virginius Xaxa studied five critical issues faced by the tribal population:
livelihood and employment,
education,
health,
involuntary displacement and migration,
Legal and constitutional matters. But, the fact remains - for the tribal children, teaching-learning has not always been friendly. Also, another report, High-Level Committee on Socio-Economic, Health and Educational Status of Tribal Communities of India, submitted in 2014 to the Government of India says that the state has paid a lot of attention to issues of development in tribal areas without caring for protecting them from the elements which have been exploiting them. This paper attempts to study the reports of various such committees, and papers and critically analyse the problems faced by the tribal women in India in general. The researchers have relied upon the secondary sources of data.
Introduction
Comprising about eight per cent of the total population of India, the tribal people are among the most vulnerable groups in the country. Not only do they share with other hindered groups the common travails of monetary hardship, they are additionally confronted perennially with grave dangers to their social respectability and socio-political opportunities.
