News 18  

The Narendra Modi government is pushing to bring revolutionary reforms to connect tribals with the mainstream, even as there are bills in Parliament to revise the status of tribals and grant the status to more of those who were left out of the list. From increasing budget expenditure, providing their produce an international market to opening new schools and promoting education in tribal languages, the government is making a pitch to woo tribals. Union minister for Education Dharmendra Pradhan on Wednesday said the Modi government has brought in a paradigm shift, ensuring wholesome development of tribals. This is reflective of PM Modi’s commitment to the upliftment of tribal population, from respecting their identity to providing education, health, and self-employment, said Pradhan. Millet Year linked to Tribal welfare The International Millet Year is being organised in India and on Monday, the government hosted a millet lunch where the prime minister was also present.
