Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order

The Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order is a legal document that officially recognizes certain indigenous communities, called Scheduled Tribes, in India. It lists these tribes and grants them special protections and benefits, such as safeguards against discrimination, access to education and resources, and measures to preserve their cultural identities. This order helps ensure that these communities receive affirmative support to promote their social and economic development while respecting their unique traditions and ways of life.
