Tribals are victims of systemic exploitation: PM
By IANSNovember 4th, 2009
NEW DELHI - Asserting that the involvement of tribal communities in
developmental processes was highly important, Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh Wednesday urged state governments to give a healing touch to
victims of systemic exploitation.
The states should endeavour to give a healing touch to the tribal
communities. Their integration in the development processes is highly
important. But this should not become a means of exploitation or be at
the cost of their unique identity and their culture, Manmohan Singh
said.
He admitted that tribal communities in central India have become
victims of systemic exploitation.
The prime minister was speaking after inaugurating the two-day
conference of chief ministers and state ministers for forests and
tribal development. The meeting has been convened to review the
implementation of the Forest Rights Act, 2006, and tribal development
and welfare programmes.
