(Mohammad Awais) AN ANALYTICAL STUDY OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF TRIBAL FARMERS IN BIJNOR DISTRICT OF U.P. STATE ABSTRACT SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In Agricultural Economics & Business Management Submitted by Mohammad Awais Under the supervision of Dr. Rais Ahmad (Associate Professor) DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS & BUSINESS MANAGEMENT, ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY, ALIGARH, INDIA 2011 1 ABSTRACT “An Analytical Study of Socio-Economic Conditions of Tribal Farmers in Bijnor District of U.P. State” In the present study the tribals are socio-economically backward as compared to the non-tribals. Agriculture is the primary source of livelihood for the overwhelming majority of the tribal population in the study area. Different agricultural strategies have been launched after 1966 in the country to bring about economic development in agriculture sector. In the study area, where agriculture is the main occupation of tribals, they are still backward. So as to eradicate the problems of tribal people, it becomes necessary on the part of the policy makers to identify and quantify the socio-economic factors which are inhibiting their growth and development. Keeping these views in mind an analytical study of socio-economic conditions of tribal farmers in Bijnor district of U.P. state was conducted with the specific objectives. These are to study the different aspects of tribal development in India, to review the socio-economic features of tribes in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, to highlight the state of agriculture in the study area, to examine the socio-economic conditions of tribal farmers, to compare the tribal farmers of Bijnor district in Uttar Pradesh with the Udham Singh Nagar district in Uttrakhand so as to analyze the levels of socio-economic development and to suggest viable measures to overcome constraints so as to improve the socio-economic conditions of tribal farmers. Under the selected districts of Bijnor and Udham Singh Nagar four blocks had been selected viz. Kotwali, Najibabad, Afzalgarh and 2 Gadarpur, for comparative study which have largest population of Buksa tribes. Farmers from the different categories like landless, marginal, small and medium were selected on the basis of their land holdings. Primary data were collected from the sample tribal farmers on different socio-economic aspects with the help of structured collective questionnaires and secondary data were collected from different official sources. The data were computed with simple statistical tools like frequencies, percentages and averages. The present study has been divided into seven chapters. First Chapter serves as an introduction containing the conceptual framework, significance of the study, statement of the problem, objectives and study area and methodology. A review of literature related to tribal studies is carried out in the Second Chapter. Third Chapter sketched about the tribal development in India. The Constitution of India has not only made specific provisions to protect tribals who make 8.2 percent of the total population but also has imposed the Constitutional obligation of regular review of performance and development effect directly to the President of India. With the dawn of independence and adoption of the Constitution of

  • Land Alienation and Livelihood Problems of Scheduled Tribes in Kerala
    Research on Humanities and Social Sciences www.iiste.org ISSN (Paper)2224-5766 ISSN (Online)2225-0484 (Online) Vol.4, No.10, 2014 Land Alienation and Livelihood Problems of Scheduled Tribes in Kerala Dr. Haseena V.A Assistant professor, Post Graduate Department of Economics, M.E.S Asmabi College P.Vemballur, Kodunagllur, Thrissur, Kerala Email: [email protected] Introduction The word 'tribe' is generally used for a socially cohesive unit, associated with a territory, the member of which regards them as politically autonomous. Often a tribe possesses a distinct dialect and distinct cultural traits. Tribe can be defined as a “collection of families bearing a common name, speaking a common dialect, occupying or professing to occupy a common territory and is not usually endogamous though originally it might have been so”. According to R.N. Mukherjee, a tribe is that human group, whose members have common interest, territory, language, social law and economic occupation. Scheduled Tribes in India are generally considered to be ‘Adivasis,’ meaning indigenous people or original inhabitants of the country. The tribes have been confined to low status and are often physically and socially isolated instead of being absorbed in the mainstream Hindu population. Psychologically, the Scheduled Tribes often experience passive indifference that may take the form of exclusion from educational opportunities, social participation, and access to their own land. All tribal communities are not alike. They are products of different historical and social conditions. They belong to different racial stocks and religious backgrounds and speak different dialects. Discrimination against women, occupational differentiation, and emphasis on status and hierarchical social ordering that characterize the predominant mainstream culture are generally absent among the tribal groups.

  • The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India
    The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India Vani K. Borooah, Amaresh Dubey and Sriya Iyer ABSTRACT This article investigates the effect of jobs reservation on improving the eco- nomic opportunities of persons belonging to India’s Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST). Using employment data from the 55th NSS round, the authors estimate the probabilities of different social groups in India being in one of three categories of economic status: own account workers; regu- lar salaried or wage workers; casual wage labourers. These probabilities are then used to decompose the difference between a group X and forward caste Hindus in the proportions of their members in regular salaried or wage em- ployment. This decomposition allows us to distinguish between two forms of difference between group X and forward caste Hindus: ‘attribute’ differences and ‘coefficient’ differences. The authors measure the effects of positive dis- crimination in raising the proportions of ST/SC persons in regular salaried employment, and the discriminatory bias against Muslims who do not benefit from such policies. They conclude that the boost provided by jobs reservation policies was around 5 percentage points. They also conclude that an alterna- tive and more effective way of raising the proportion of men from the SC/ST groups in regular salaried or wage employment would be to improve their employment-related attributes. INTRODUCTION In response to the burden of social stigma and economic backwardness borne by persons belonging to some of India’s castes, the Constitution of India allows for special provisions for members of these castes.

[Dr.] SUBHASISH CHATTERJEE, Principal-HOD Mr. RAHUL SHARMA, ASST.PROFESSOR Department of Management, Sumandeep Vidyapeeth [Deemed to be University] ABSTRACT Around seven percent of Indian population follows separate culture from rest of the populations of India. Those populations have been recognized as tribals. They believe in their self identity and altruistic attitude but it is restricted within their own sphere. Here researcher has tried to discuss about the relation of their religion with their daily life and their belief in supernatural power. This is simply an elementary study with a purpose to persist a broad research in future. Key words: Religion, Supernatural Power, Tribal, Rituals, Mana, Bonga, Animism, Animatisms, Immortality of soul, Faith in Rebirth, Magic & its faith and Totem and Taboo INTRODUCTION To stop the deviance of the social norms there is a requirement of supreme influences either through the government or any other resources. But in the tribal society they believe in supernatural power which has been influencing them since long. Since ages they have a fanatic belief on supernatural power within the tribal religion not only across India but also across the world. There are three indispensable elements i. Existence of superhuman and relationship with superhuman refers to the value system ii. Practices various rites and rituals lead to maintain relationship, to build up action system and to control the society.

The Indian constitution enjoin on the state the responsibility to promote, with special care, the education and economic interests of scheduled tribes and protect them from social injustice and all forms of exploitation. Their development is a special responsibility of the state. The successive plans have been laying considerable emphasis on special development programmes for the tribals. The physical development of an area itself will not be sufficient. It must go hand in hand with the development of the people of the region. No section of any community should be allowed to expose to the exploitation and benefits of the development must diffuse as widely as possible. Background Jalanidhi phase 1 covered 8664 tribal households in 33 Grama panchayaths, during the first phase of Jalanidhi KRWSA adopted separate Tribal development plan in 10 Grama panchayaths namely Agali, Pudur, Sholayur, Muthalamada, Pothukal, Athirappally, Perumatty , Kulathupuzha and Thirunelly and Chaliyar. It is evident that the coverage of tribal population is much higher than in TDP comparing to general water supply and sanitation project. The tribal, who hitherto had received free service, have accepted the change in thinking and contributed Rs.83.6 lakhs in cash and labor to the beneficiary share.
