DESCRIPTION
Though the state of Indian tribals is not that bad as it exists even in the United State of America where the native Indians are forced to live in enmarked geographical space. In Indian and even in the predominant tribal states like Jharkhand tribals and the fact of the matter is that somehow tribals haven't been able to take full advantage of the progress and growth primarily because of the political indifference and lack of leadership from their own community. This book shows some light at the end of tunnel.
