DESCRIPTION
The Tribal dances in India are inimitable examples of communities in inaccessible existence, still upholding their life, customs and manners. Though adapted to different dialects and customs, the dances’ aesthetic expression manifestly reflects the distinct, isolated and primitive social structure and nature of the people. Such tribal dances still survive in as much vigorous manner as ever in the tribal hamlets of the hilly tracts. Each of these aboriginal tribes possesses its own distinguishable dance traditions and invariable all of them are interwoven with the life of the people who dance it.
