## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF TRIBAL AFFAIRS (SHRI JASWANTSINH BHABHOR)

(a): The    major    policies    of    the  Ministry  of  Tribal  Affairs  aim  to  ensure  the  overall development  of  both  Scheduled  Tribe  men  and women.  However,  within  the  Scheduled Tribes,  women    often    suffer    from    a    greater    disadvantage.  Ministry  of  Tribal  Affairs therefore, while trying to ensure that women benefit equally from general schemes also has some special schemes meant for the benefit of ST women and girls as given below:

(i)  Scheme of Girls & Boys Hostels for STs: Under the scheme, Central assistance is given to States / UTs / Universities for construction of new hostel buildings and / or extension of existing hostels. State Governments are eligible for 100% central share for construction of all  Girls'  hostel  and  also  for  construction  of  Boys'  hostel  in  naxal  affected  areas.  The funding pattern for other Boys' Hostel to State Governments is on 50:50 basis.

(ii) Scheme of Ashram Schools in Tribal Areas: The objective of the scheme is to provide residential  schools  for  STs  to  increase  the  literacy  rate  among  the  tribal  students  and  to bring  them  at  par  with  other  population  of  the  country.  Under  the  scheme,  State Governments  are  eligible  for  100%  central  share  for  construction  of  all  Girls'  Ashram Schools and also for  construction of Boys'  Ashram Schools in naxal affected areas. The funding pattern for the other Boys' Ashram Schools is on 50:50 basis.

(iii)  Scheme for Strengthening Education among ST Girls in Low Literacy Districts: This scheme  is  being  implemented  in  54  identified  low  literacy  Districts  where  the  ST population is 25% or more, and ST female literacy rate is below 35%, or its fractions, as per 2001 census. Any other tribal block in a district, other than aforesaid 54 identified districts, which  fulfill  the  same  criteria  for  tribal  population  and  ST  female  literacy  rate,  are  also covered.  The  areas  inhabited  by  Particularly  Vulnerable  Tribal  Groups  (PVTGs)  and naxalite affected areas are given priority.  This scheme aims to bridge the gap in literacy levels between the general female population and tribal women, through facilitating 100% enrolment  of  tribal  girls  in  the  identified  Districts  or  Blocks,  more  particularly  in  naxal affected  areas  and  in  areas  inhabited  by  Particularly  Vulnerable  Tribal  Groups  (PVTGs), and  reducing  drop-outs  at  the  elementary  level  by  creating  the  required  ambience  for education.  The  scheme  is  implemented  through  Voluntary  Organizations  (VOs)  /  NonGovernmental  Organizations  (NGOs)  and  autonomous  society  /  institutions  of  State Government  /  Union  Territory  Administration.  Ministry  provides  100%  assistance  for running  and  maintenance  of  educational  complexes  for  ST  girls  which  include  free education,  boarding  and  lodging,  books,  uniforms,  medical  help,  coaching,  incentives  to girls, periodical awards,etc. The scheme envisages convergence with the schemes of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidhyalaya of Ministry of Human Resource Development. It meets the requirement of primary level students as well as middle/secondary  level  students  and  provides  residential  facility  to  ST  girl  students  to ensure their retention in schools.

(iv)    In  addition  to  above,  to  maximize  retention  of  ST  students  within  various  stages  of school  education  and  promoting  higher  learning,  monetary  incentives  are  provided  by Ministry of Tribal Affairs in the form of scholarships such as Pre Matric Scholarship, Post Matric Scholarship, National Overseas Scholarship, Scholarship for Top Class Education and Rajiv Gandhi National Fellowship for ST students.

(v)    Special  Central  Assistance  to  Tribal  Sub  Scheme  (SCA  to  TSS)  (hitherto  known  as SCA to Tribal Sub Plan (TSP)): It is 100% grant from Government of India.  Its objective is to  bridge  the  gap  between  Scheduled  Tribes  (ST)  population  and  others  by  providing support for education, health, sanitation, water supply, livelihood, skill development, minor infrastructure etc. It is a flexible  scheme  and  supplements  the  efforts  of  the  line Ministries/Departments.

(vi) Grants under Article 275(1) of the Constitution: It is 100% grant from Government of India. Funding under this programme is to enable the State to meet the cost of such schemes of development as may be undertaken by the State for the purpose of promoting the welfare of Scheduled Tribes in that State or raising the level of administration of Scheduled Areas therein to that of the administration of the rest of the areas of that State. Funds are provided to States for various sectoral interventions.

The  Ministry  has  insisted  upon  the  States,  that  in  interventions  under  Special Central  Assistance  to  Tribal  Sub  Scheme,  and  under  Article  275(1)  grants,  one  third beneficiaries should be women / girls.

(vii)    Adivasi  Mahila  Sashaktikaran  Yojana:  National  Scheduled  Tribes  Finance  and Development  Corporation  (NSTFDC),  an  apex  organisation  under  Ministry  of  Tribal Affairs  is  implementing  this  exclusive  scheme  for  tribal  women.
