Question
List two reasons why Adivasis are becoming increasingly marginalised.
✓
Answer
Adivasis are becoming increasingly marginalized because:
- They follow a different culture, language and traditions from mainstream Indian society which leads us to wrongfully classify them as exotic, primitive and backward.
- They are used to a way of life close to nature and with the cutting down of forests they are being forced to migrate to urban areas where they feel out of place and not in sync with a lifestyle so vastly different from their countryside background.
