Little attention has been given to the understanding of millions of women dwelling in the villages and tribal areas silently carrying out traditional, domestic and agricultural tasks and unquestioningly adhering to norms that have been espoused for them for many generations. We have to understand these village and tribal women, make them aware of themselves and improve their lot.The tribal women have, particularly played a dominant role in not only in agricultural operations, but also in the field of crafts and forest based economy. In this way, in the socio-economic sphere, the tribal women have an important position more or less equal to that of men. In spite of all the women welfare programmes, benefits have not reached the tribal women. It seems to be essential to save them from exploitation, to enrich their social status and to achieve their glory as respected citizens of India. In this book editors have furnished sufficient and in-depth studies regarding tribal women in India.
