Indian tribal congress

The Indian Tribal Congress was a political organization formed in the early 20th century to advocate for the rights and welfare of India's indigenous tribal populations. It aimed to address issues like land rights, cultural preservation, social justice, and political representation for tribal communities. By bringing together tribal leaders and supporters, the Congress sought to ensure that tribal voices were heard within the broader national development process. Although it faced challenges in gaining widespread influence, it played a significant role in raising awareness about tribal concerns in India’s political landscape.
