Education is considered as the backbone of development, both at the individual household and societal levels. Educating the tribal children has been a challenge for the Government for various socio-cultural, economic, ecological and administrative reasons. Government is redesigning its strategies to create an enabling ecosystem of equal opportunity for quality education for ST children.

One of the major concerns of Tribal education is the low ST literacy rate and high ST drop-out rate.

Reducing the ST drop-out rates in Class I to X is a challenge. Bringing them back and to gainfully utilizing those who have already dropped out requires extreme care, sensitivity, imagination and meticulous planning.

Through this platform, Ministry of Tribal Affairs invites ideas, suggestions, views, opinions, solutions, criticism, and best practices from citizen for innovative interventions.

In my opinion , we cannot generalise the reason for drop out in tribals . Every tribal areas has there own specific reason . Some of reasons are as 1) Migration for Livelihood Parents move to neighbouring towns after harvest and take their children along with them , thus hapering education of kids 2)Early Marriage It is still very prevalent in tribals and one of reason for drop out in girls of tribals

in my view best way to promote education in tribal people is the education followed by work. if we can give job to them they can participate in skill development enthusiastically. so PM sir please give job opportunity to them in their local place, don't force them for shift to urban areas. MGNREGA is a panacea for that but implement it transparently and effectively.

We need officials who go to the grass root levels and find solutions. Not one who sit in the head office and create the plans. The people who are receiving benefits are receiving them still new once are being added only in the books. See any students hostel belong to tribal. Situation is pathetic. Toilets without water connection. Sewerage pipes always outside and leaking. We need to have people with common sense to fix the issues. I volunteer for tribal hostels and teach them
