What are the major problems encountered by ‘Scheduled Tribes’ in India?
Answers
The high-caste Hindus maintained a social distance from them. They were denied many basic amenities of life which were accorded to the high-caste Hindus. They were dependent on the tradition of Hindus for items of food and drink.
2. Religious Problems:
These pertained to the denial of the right of entering temples which were exclusively served by the high-caste Brahmins. The untouchables were neither allowed to enter the temples nor served by the Brahmins. They had no right to worship the Gods and Goddesses in the temple.
3. Economic Problems:
They suffered from many economic problems. They had to face many economic hardships and they were not given proper reward for their service. Traditionally, untouchables were deprived of landed property of their own. They were not allowed to carry on any business. They were not permitted to engage themselves in the professions which were being carried out by the people of other castes.
The untouchables were not free to choose any occupation according to their own ability they had to clean the streets, remove dead cattle and to undertake heavy agricultural work. Mostly they were landless labourers. They worked in the fields of high- caste Hindus as labourers.
4. Public Disabilities:
Harijans had to face many public indignities because they were denied the right to use the services of public utilities like wells, public transport as well as educational institutions.
5. Educational Problems:
Traditionally the untouchables were deprived of getting education. They were not allowed to use public educational institutions. Even today most of the illiterates are untouchables.

What are the problems of the scheduled caste?
Poor at politics.. lack of unity.. very low self-esteem.. they still assume themselves to be slaves to King.. They need awareness.. Free quality education—- a good beginning with English equal to any private school.. Come out of Hindi (it's consuming lots of memory in non-hindi states) get into Google to know the facts.. how they were betrayed for long time.. Free quality judicial system.. generally they are the ones punished hard, soon and long unlike rich., Quality free medical treatment in such a way they need not hear any hard words from government hospital staff. They should be treated with respect as in private hospital just because they aren't begging they are just getting their due share from government for being a citizen
