Download or read book Gandhi and Adivasis written by Debasree De and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-07-07 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adivasi movements played a very important, if not determining, role in the India’s freedom struggle. Gandhi’s idea of mass mobilization couldn’t have been successful without the active participation of all sections of the Indian society. Adivasi movements were swelled by Gandhian ideology only during the Non-Cooperation movement. Though Gandhi’s interest in the tribal problems crystallized at a later stage of his life, his influence on tribal movements was revealing. His association with Thakkar Bapa and Verrier Elwin also enriched his knowledge about tribal state of affairs. Adivasis started looking at Gandhi as saviour or a saint, who could deliver them justice and peace. But, Gandhi always supported Adivasi movements in order to give a mass character to his movements. There were some particular demands of the Adivasis that were not supported by Gandhi. Their armed struggle was also against his non-violent principles. During the latter half of the twentieth century, movements like Tana Bhagat and Hari Baba were purely influenced by the Gandhian ideology, but failed to achieve their goals. Later on, the Jharkhand movement adopted the character of a non-violent struggle; here also the fruits disappeared. The present work focuses on the first three movements of the Chota Nagpur Plateau of eastern India during Gandhi’s lifetime and the current movements against forceful displacement by POSCO, Vedanta and others, in order to comprehend his ideological impact on Adivasi movements of today. The book has critically analysed and evaluated Gandhi’s impact on the Adivasi situation in colonial and post-colonial India.

The papers are arranged into four sections in such a way that they bring out a clear picture of the status of tribal communities in Central India. The tribes in India constitute the weaker section of the population from ecological, economic and educational angles. Illiteracy, poverty, ill-health and malnutrition continue to be higher among the scheduled tribes than any other section of the population. Despite the constitutional provision and various legal protections, the problem of land alienation has multiplied. There are other problems such as indebtedness, exploitation, loss of natural resources and indigenous knowledge system. The provision of law under different Acts for safeguarding their interest and maintaining their identity remains largely unimplemented. The issues related to tribal policy, socio-cultural context, tribal health and tribal economy have been discussed in the book from the viewpoints of anthropologists and other specialists working on tribal communities.
