short Essay on Tribal Social Movements in India!
Social movements among tribes aim at collective action to alter, reconstitute, reinterpret, restore and protect social structure, with a view to improve social, cultural, economic and political conditions of the tribal people. Hinduism, Christianity, British rule, modern education and post-independence legislations have generated a high level of consciousness among the tribals, which has in turn encouraged several movements.
Some movements have asserted their tribal identity and political solidarity. Ecological-cultural isolation, economic backwardness and a feeling of frustration have been responsible for these movements. However, those tribals who are either too isolated or too integrated with Hindu society are not involved in these socio-cultural movements.
