Paper long abstract:

Social Exclusion and Human Development are intrinsically linked together as the development of individual or group invariably depends upon the nature and factors of Social Exclusion. Although, Social Exclusion is euro centric originated notion but its applicability and usage in social and cultural milieu of Indian context is very significant for study. In India, large numbers of social, ethnic and religious communities are exited that are subjected to discrimination of social exclusion, marginalization and segregation which have made such communities to remain backward in terms of human development. One of such community, the Indian Tribes who have continued to remain marginalized and excluded from the benefits of economic development. Inclusive policy being adopted by Indian state has rather excluded much. Displacement induced development of industrialization and Market friendly economic policies initiated by Indian state has excluded and marginalized the Indian tribes from development growth. Moreover, the process of globalization and New Economic Policy adopted by Indian State has worsened their conditions. The effort has to be made to salvage and improve their socio-economic condition otherwise their ethnic identify would perish in the darkness of globalization.
