Problems of Tribal Education in India: A Study from a Village of Jharkhand, West Bengal

Abstract

This paper attempts to examine and understand the low literacy level and education among Bhumij tribal community in the state of Jharkhand, India. The paper discusses the present scenario of educational level of Bhumij Tribal community as well as the role of government institutions and their programmes and the link between education and development. Various programmes and schemes have been initiated but very few of them have reached the tribal children and benefited them. Many of the programmes did not benefit the tribal community because the programmes were not contextualized and localized considering regional, geographical and physical differences and barriers. Other reasons of not getting the benefits of the programs by the tribals are lack of political will, corruption, and lesser attention on development of tribal areas. The paper highlights the need for special focus on tribal education, which is includes context specific traditional and innovative interventions.
