Centre's new initiative to promote tribal craft, culture

NEW DELHI: As tribes are among the disadvantaged sections of the society, a quiz has been started by the Centre at promoting and preserving their craft, culture and lifestyle to improve their income. Tribes constitute over 8 per cent of our population. Started by Ministry of Tribal Affairs, the innovative contest called "Be A Friend of Tribes India", has the sole objective of promoting the wide range of tribal handicrafts which include hand-woven cotton, silk fabrics, wool, metal craft, terracotta, bead-work — all of whom need to be preserved and promoted.
