Indian states and territories by Scheduled Tribe population, 2011

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This demographic map shows Scheduled Tribes (ST) as a percent of each state and union territory's population per 2011 Census of India. Mizoram and Lakshadweep had the highest percentage Tribal populations in 2011 among all Indian states/UT (nearly 95%), while Punjab and Haryana had 0%.

Scheduled Tribes are also known as Ādivāsīs. Adivasi is an umbrella term for a heterogeneous set of ethnic and tribal groups who inhabit different parts of India. Different tribes live in mountainous northeastern states, dry areas of western states, the forests of central and eastern states, the islands of Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, as well as other areas. Officially recognized by the Indian government as Scheduled Tribes in the Fifth Schedule of the en:Constitution of India, they are often grouped together with scheduled castes in the category "en:Scheduled Castes and Tribes", which is eligible for certain affirmative action measures.

Data Source: Census of India 2011, Primary Census Abstract - Scheduled castes and scheduled tribes, Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India (October 28 2013).

The data can be viewed in a Powerpoint presentation on a Government of India Census website here.
