what are the main reasons of marginalisation of tribes in india?
Answers
Political representations of minorities is very important for protecting them from marginalization, we in India have politicized the committee which decides and accredits tribals as tribes. For example, in Karnataka those who were kings and commander in chief of armies are grouped along with forest hunters and forest honey collectors tribes, now all of them are Scheduled Tribes, do you think the forest honey collector tribesmen are in equal footing with a family who was owning forts and maintaining armies.
Identification of tribes is pathetically skewed for political profits, the micro minorities don’t have a say for political representation and also very difficult to disturb the apple cart.
