Ministry of Tribal Affairs Initiatives for Cultural Heritage Preservation

The Ministry of Tribal Affairs in India is actively supporting the preservation of tribal cultural heritage through the Centrally Sponsored scheme 'Support to Tribal Research Institutes (TRIs)'. This initiative provides financial assistance to 29 TRIs for research, documentation, and cultural events aimed at promoting tribal languages, traditions, and practices. Key activities include the organization of tribal festivals, literary competitions, and the publication of works by tribal authors. The government also commemorates tribal contributions through events like Janjatiya Gaurav Divas and Jan Jatiya Gaurav Varsh, celebrating the rich history and culture of tribal communities.
