Abstract:
This paper discusses poverty alleviation for the Empowerment of Scheduled Tribes in India. Poor education, health, and poverty are grave challenges for their development. The various policies and programmes of the governments towards reducing poverty have not resulted satisfactorily. Currently,tribal people continue to be poor, and malnourished in India. Hence this study is attempted. This paper
is based on secondary sources like volumes, articles, journals, and e- sources. The study reveals that the poverty ratio of STs is narrowing down in both rural and urban areas, but as compared it to the general population there is a widening gap. Hence to minimize this gap, Government should implement effective Poverty Alleviation Schemes at the grassroots and the NGOs should come forward to create awareness about Poverty Alleviation and employment creation schemes for the Empowerment of Scheduled Tribes in India.
