Involvement of Tribals in Welfare Schemes

Participation of Scheduled Tribes in the process of carrying out development schemes is ensured through involvement of the Gram Sabhas, from which formulation of the district plans emanates. Under the Tribal Sub Plan, the concerned States are to allocate funds which are atleast equal to the percentage of tribal population to the total population in the States for preparation of a Tribal Sub Plan, in order to bring about speedy socio-economic development of tribals. Several Central Sector Schemes, Centrally Sponsored Schemes and Special Area Programmes of this Ministry are being implemented in all States/Union Territories including West Bengal in this regard. These schemes are indicated under:
