Lack of livelihood opportunities for tribal people is one of the chief causes of their backward status as compared with the other social groups. This issue is aggravated by the high rate of displacements faced by tribal people due to various industrial projects etc., which also causes loss of livelihood for them among other things. This Ministry has been taking various steps for facilitating sustainable livelihood for tribal populations in different sectors. Stress has been given on vocational education and formal technical education for tribal youth. States are being encouraged to take upskill development initiatives for tribal youth with at least 50% of such activities to be oriented for women.

Through MyGov, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs seeks suggestions/information from all sections of the society regarding various livelihood possibilities for tribal people, availability of skilled/unskilled manpower still unemployed, various traditional skills available with the tribal population, new trends and interests among tribal youth, corresponding skilling needs and possibilities etc.

Tribal india can generate natural products free from poison and pesticides. We should create a special BRAND NAME for those products so that they can be marketed all over the world. And if Modi ji promotes it through media, within one month this problem will be solved for ever!

North East India is full of green lush Bamboo grass which is renewable. Bamboo can be used for industrial packing, flooring. Develop the bamboo Industry in a big way in NE India through both Public and private participation. It is eco-friendly also. Bamboo flooring should be promoted in new housing / commercial real state projects in similar way to Khadi. bamboo fabric mixed with other fiber should be developed to make clothes. bamboo flooring is widely exported world-wide.

Sir,We need to create a better base for the tribal people.Better base in the sense, an ecosystem which must satisfy all the basic requirements such as food, housing etc.,Free education with talented staffs must be given to them.Then, during weekends special programmes(social,medical awarenesses; skill development programmes)must b conducted by Youths.I say weekends so that it doesn't disturb their academic or working schedule.We must make tribal people know that they are of great importance.

Encouraging tourism is one of the ways to provide livelihood to tribals. Places of tourist interest near the tribal areas should be developed.Wide publicity to be given to these tourist attractions.Handicrafts and eatables prepared by the tribals should be sold near the tourist spots. Tribal boys should be trained as guides. Tribal dances and culture should be popularised near the tourist destinations. Tribals should be taught to operate cameras, so that they can help tourist to take photograph

Modiji, मन्त्रियॊ कॆ लियॆ कॊइ AGE LIMIT नहीं होता है लेकिन IAS बनने के लिए 30 साल? This nonsensical law must be changed. वैसे भी हमारे गोआ में बाकी राज्यों की तरह IAS वाली training नहीं होती है| My big dream of at least trying for IAS got shattered as I don't come either under OBC or SC/ST. Goa Public Service Commission has an age limit upto 40 years. Make UPSC at least 37 years. If policy makers feel that people beyond the age of 30 cannot make good IAS officers, then why politicians above 40?
