This chapter uses the term ‘tribal’ and ‘forest dweller’ inter-changeably and synonymously. The term scheduled tribes (ST) also connotes ‘tribals’ in India, but while talking about ‘forest dwellers’, the tribals could include some more tribes than the forest dwellers, for example, the agariya (salt workers of Kachchh district of Gujarat) and other such nomadic tribes.
