Explanation:
India is a land of grand cultural co-existence and
fusion of people of diverse ethnic stocks. Many
ethnic groups migrated during different periods
and settled in different areas across the Indian
sub-continent. Prior to their arrival, several other
communities were already living in this country.
In modern parlance, for all such communities we
use the term 'tribals' or 'adivasis.' These
communities had their own system of
administration of justice and government, socio-
political institutions, customs, practices and lifestyle.
They resided in remote, inaccessible highlands and
desolate forests. With the advent of the British, the
situation underwent a dynamic change. You will
read in this chapter what the lifestyle of tribals
was, how it was affected by the British rule and
what the responses of tribals were towards the
changes.
