Understanding Marginalisation
List two reasons why Adivasis are becoming increasingly marginalised.
The reasons:
(i)Adivasis have been increasingly forced – through economic changes, forest policies and political force applied by the State and private industry – to migrate to lives as workers in plantations, at construction sites, in industries and as domestic workers.
(ii)Adivasis have also lived in areas that are rich in minerals and other natural resources. These are taken over for mining and other large industrial projects.
