The Indigenous Peoples of India, often referred to as Adivasis, comprise various ethnic groups with distinct languages, cultures, and traditions. They primarily inhabit forested and hilly regions, with significant populations in states like Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Odisha. Adivasis have their own social structures and practices, often closely tied to their ancestral lands. These communities face challenges such as land displacement, loss of cultural identity, and socio-economic marginalization. The Indian government recognizes many Indigenous groups and has implemented policies aimed at protecting their rights and promoting their development. However, issues related to access to education, healthcare, and employment opportunities persist.
