Abstract
India's 75
Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) constitute some of the most
marginalized communities, characterized by pre-agricultural technology,
declining or stagnant population, extremely low literacy, and a
subsistence-level economy. The PM-JANMAN Yojana (Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi
Nyaya Maha Abhiyan), launched on November 15, 2023, represents a watershed
policy intervention targeting these communities across 18 states and one Union
Territory. This paper critically examines the scheme's design, implementation
architecture, coverage, and potential socio-economic impact on 75 PVTG
communities. Drawing on secondary data from government reports, census records,
and academic literature, the study argues that while PM-JANMAN marks a
significant departure from earlier fragmented welfare approaches, its long-term
success depends on convergent implementation, community participation, and
addressing deep-rooted structural inequities. The paper contributes to emerging
scholarship on tribal welfare policy in post-colonial India.
