The major objectives of tribal development do not include :

  • A.Elimination of Untouchability
  • B.Elimination of Exploitation
  • C.Infrastructure Development
  • D.Human Resource Development

Answer: A

Tribal development does not include elimination of untouchability.

Untouchability is a practice of the caste system directed at Scheduled Castes, and its abolition under Article 17 belongs to the programme for their welfare. Scheduled Tribes, by contrast, generally lived outside the caste order, so untouchability is not among the objectives of tribal development.

The other three are core objectives. Ending exploitation by moneylenders, traders and land-grabbers has been central since the Fifth Schedule and the tribal sub-plan. Infrastructure development (roads, schools, health centres, irrigation) addresses the remoteness of tribal areas. Human resource development, through education, health and skills, builds the capacities of tribal people themselves.
