Lack of livelihood opportunities for tribal people is one of the chief causes of their backward status as compared with the other social groups. This issue is aggravated by the high rate of displacements faced by tribal people due to various industrial projects etc., which also causes loss of livelihood for them among other things. This Ministry has been taking various steps for facilitating sustainable livelihood for tribal populations in different sectors. Stress has been given on vocational education and formal technical education for tribal youth. States are being encouraged to take upskill development initiatives for tribal youth with at least 50% of such activities to be oriented for women.

Through MyGov, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs seeks suggestions/information from all sections of the society regarding various livelihood possibilities for tribal people, availability of skilled/unskilled manpower still unemployed, various traditional skills available with the tribal population, new trends and interests among tribal youth, corresponding skilling needs and possibilities etc.

Tribal people depend upon forest and rich non tribal people either by luring or forcefully remove them from their small fertile land. Tribal people must be allowed to modernize by improving their skill in different treads.In India now forest which has been left are mostly national parks for wild animals. These tribal should be given training in domestic tourist services.

Basic facilities like Sanitation,Drinking water and Health are poor/not even existing in tribal areas. Govt should give necessary facilities to improve their living conditions. ITDC and Incredible India campaign can popularize their rich art,handicrafts, minor forest produce. (Example Araku is known best coffee but very few know about it) MoUs with e-commerce companies, NGOs,SHGs can be a great help to implement such programs. Govt to come with plans to increase financial credit.

Most Tribal are uneducated and it needs to use RTE. In parallel we may educate them on farming, poultry, cultivation. They are exploited by making them Naxal as they dont have opportunity for their lively hood. Immediate attention is to be paid by the present Govt by engaging them to make accessible roads and creating small pockets for development.

As the Tribal areas have yet to catch up with hush-hush of the cities, they stand on their old-self as old as one can look for. The means of livelyhood in these areas need to be developed keeping in view their uniqueness. BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT HAS TO ENSURED THAT THEIR UNIQUENESS IS IN NO WAY DAMAGED.
