Answer:
Adivasi is the collective term for tribes of the Indian Subcontinent,[1] who are considered indigenous to places within India wherein they live, either as foragers or as tribalistic sedentary communities. However, India does not recognise Tribe as Indigenous people.[2] The term is also used for ethnic minorities, such as Chakmas of Bangladesh, Tharus of Nepal, and Bhils of Pakistan.
They comprise a substantial minority population of India, Nepal and a minority group of the Sri Lankan society called the Vedda, making up 8.6% of India's population, or 104 million people, according to the 2011 census, and a large percentage of the Nepalese population.[3][4][5] Adivasi societies are particularly prominent in Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Odisha, West Bengal, and Northeast India, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Though considered to be the original inhabitants of India, present-day Adivasi formed after the decline of the Indus Valley Civilisation, harboring various degrees of ancestry from ancient hunter-gatherers, IVC-people, Indo-Aryan, and Austroasiatic and Tibeto-Burman language speakers.[6][7][8] Tribal languages can be categorised into six linguistic groupings, namely Andamanese; Austro-Asiatic; Dravidian; Indo-Aryan
