Tribal people being the original inhabitants of India, constitute a significant part of this vast nation. They have been dwelling in the forests surrounded by hills for a long period. Their social structure, their culture and their language are quite different from the general people of India. In course of time, in the post-independence era, a lot of changes have taken place in the tribal areas due to immense endeavours of the government for their socio-economic development. But, inspite of all endeavours, they are still poor as well as illiterate and are far from the main stream of Indian society. This book comprises the study of tribal life and their relation to forest in historical as well as in modern perspective.
