List of Indian tribes

Scholars have classified tribes in different ways. Zonal classification classifies the tribes on geographical lines while linguistic classification classifies the tribes into four linguistic families :

  • Tibeto-Chinese
  • Indo-European
  • Austro-Asiatic
  • Dravidian

Some scholars have classified the tribes on the basis of their races such as Mongoloid, Western Brachycephals etc. Some have attempted to classify them as aboriginals and new settlers but it can be argued that this is a very difficult and uncertain manner of classification purely on account of interaction and engagement between the tribes. Mentioned below we have attempted to give an insight into the different tribes and their way of life, their traditions and culture. As a nation and as a composite society, it is essential that this section of our heritage, heritage of the Indian society must be sustained, but it is even more essential that they are provided with opportunities and infrastructure that is available to the rest of us as they are equal partners in our democracy.
