ABSTRACT

In the equality, supremacy and exploitation culture, tribal society in India has been the most marginalized group. Their socio-economic and political rights are on the breadline. Even after decades, India is led by the unchanged condition of tribal communities. They, particularly tribal women, were subjected to violations of fundamental human rights and state brutality. Like the Dalits of mainstream society, tribal groups have experienced alienation and social inequality. Understanding contemporary tribal cultures needs fundamental respect for the historical structures that have determined the course of successive shifts in the tribal communities' ideological, political, economic and socio-cultural lives. In the constitution, the Indian democratic state grants many laws where the interests of tribal peoples are protected and for which social justice is decided. In this respect, however, the democratic experiment has not been successful. There is therefore a surge in Tribal movements for their rights in the region. All of India's tribal people have one thing in common — all of them have a legacy of injustice. Within the broader context of human rights in general and how tribal rights in particular were violated in India, the present paper discusses.

Key words: Tribal society, Marginalized Groups, political rights, Human rights, Tribal culture, etc.
