Despite the statutory provisions made in the Indian constitution and series of planned programmes, the problem of tribal development still remains unsolved, sometimes more complicated and controversial. The author has made a critical review of the history of tribal development in India since British period. The book involves an evaluative study of the development programmes among the tribal groups in West Bengal. It also makes an illumination on some emerging issues that are extremely valuables to introduce a new planning for further planned development. In brief, the book continuously attempts to portray the spirit and feeling of the tribal people and conscience of their own society and group solidarity. The book should prove useful for the social scientists, researchers, students, planners and administrators in the field of tribal development.
