Lack of livelihood opportunities for tribal people is one of the chief causes of their backward status as compared with the other social groups. This issue is aggravated by the high rate of displacements faced by tribal people due to various industrial projects etc., which also causes loss of livelihood for them among other things. This Ministry has been taking various steps for facilitating sustainable livelihood for tribal populations in different sectors. Stress has been given on vocational education and formal technical education for tribal youth. States are being encouraged to take upskill development initiatives for tribal youth with at least 50% of such activities to be oriented for women.

Through MyGov, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs seeks suggestions/information from all sections of the society regarding various livelihood possibilities for tribal people, availability of skilled/unskilled manpower still unemployed, various traditional skills available with the tribal population, new trends and interests among tribal youth, corresponding skilling needs and possibilities etc.

The tribals need to be associated to the mainstream of India by providing them proper education & other basic facilities.Though they are in ST quata but this advantages are taken by very few people who are already came out from backwardness & other remains in the darkness of illiteracy,ignorance & proverty.These sometimes misguided them towards extremism.We need to move out them from isolation towards oneness i.e. towards being Indian.

The tribal people getting proper education and joining the mainstream is of utmost importance. At the same time, preserving the heritage arts arts and crafts are also of great importance. In view of safeguarding this knowledge, we can think of training others who are interested in these skills. Thus, they will be able to earn by teaching their skills to others. We will not end up losing the heritage arts, the tribal people may opt for white-collar jobs after receiving modern education.

Provide know how, seeds for growing vegetables and flowers. Frozen vegetables is big business for companies like Vadilal that sell them overseas. Not all types of vegetables freeze properly. Generate cultivars that freeze and still taste great when thawed. Vadilal always runs out of okra. When tribal people partner with such businesses there is opportunity for revenue, technology, jobs and entrepreneurial growth. Beware of what Shiv Kumar Sahu has said below. Find the right people to lead this.

If any company is interested in opening new industry than govt should not sell the agricultural land to these companies but provide them land 99 years lease period. By doing this farmers will get regular income & he can focus on other employment opportunities available in market.
