We are committed to honouring and preserving the culture of tribal communities by increasing funds to Tribal Research Institutes; protecting tribal languages; continuing to set up Tribal Freedom Fighter Museums; establishing a Digital Tribal Arts Academy; and preserving tribal medicinal traditions.

Our Assessment

medium

Several strands of the tribal heritage bundle are progressing: Tribal Freedom Fighter Museums are being constructed/inaugurated across states, Tribal Research Institutes are funded and active (and were mobilised for Janjatiya Gaurav Varsh), and Birsa Munda Tribal Gaurav Upvans were announced for tribal-dominated districts. Work on tribal languages and medicinal traditions continues in parts. However, the full set of commitments — notably a dedicated Digital Tribal Arts Academy — is not entirely delivered. Partial.
