Definición

  • India has about 84 million people considered under the constitutional term scheduled tribe, about 8% of the general population. Many of these scheduled tribe groups prefer the political term adivasi, or “original inhabitant.” The largest concentration of adivasis lie in India's far northeast, followed by the “central tribal belt” in the hilly, forested areas stretching from Gujarat to West Bengal.
