A COMMENTARY ON THE TRIBES IN INDIA: With Special Reference to Chhattisgarh

The term 'tribe/tribal' is at the heart of several contentious issues of contemporary Indian society. For centuries the tribal communities have been subjected to domination and control by the outsiders and been victims of cultural genocide. As a result, their relationship with forests has been violated, their lifestyle that epitomised harmony with Nature, stands denigrated causing colossal disruption of the everyday practices.This book offers critical insights into questions that are fundamental as well as contemporary in the field of tribal research.I hope that this effort of mine contribute to a structured method of adjudicating disputes as well as a re-thinking of certain decisions and propositions of law that I have critiqued in the book.This book deals with a wide array of topics in a lucid, coherent and concise manner, and provides a panoramic view of the pitfalls, challenges and possibilities to regulate 'Tribal Rights' in India especially in the state of Chhattisgarh.
