There is no precise definition for the term “minority,” despite several proclamations and laws favoring them. Several countries have considered defining the term “minority” according to a specific, universally recognized definition. They were utterly unsuccessful, nevertheless, as minorities are dependent on a variety of variables, which can be linguistic, cultural, or geographic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Indian government formally regards no particular segment of its populace as “indigenous people,” as the term is usually understood and intended in UN usage. The government instead refers to all of its people as indigenous. In many of its operations, however, the groups of people designated as belonging to the official category of “Scheduled Tribes” (STs) are regarded as indigenous peoples. In the Indian context, it is generally acknowledged that the STs comprise mostly “indigenous peoples,” even if the terms “tribal” and “Adivasi,” which refer to indigenous or original people, are not synonymous. The constitution and legislation convey this “indigenousness” clearly and uniquely, and it is acknowledged as separate from “regionalism.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
