About the Book

Tribal literature is the literature of a search for identity. Exposing the past and present forms of exploitation by outsiders, and of threats to tribal identity and existence forms the core of the tribal writings, and resistance. As Tribal literary discourse is still in the making, its issues are also just taking shape. India is a land with various culture, tradition, race, religion and caste. Among all the race, tribes are the most ethnic group of Indian society. This book delves deep into the musings that ponder the rights of the tribes. It further unfurls the propelling issues that curb the identity and space of the tribals. The book tries to voice out the unheard voices of the tribal people living in the fringes of the society.
