POLITICAL ECONOMY OF TRIBAL DEVELOPMENT IN GOA. Mr. Vijay M. Gawas Asst. professor-cum-Asst. Director, UGC, Centre for the Study of Social Exclusion and Inclusive Policy, Goa University, Taleigao Plateau,GOA
Abstract It is keen interesting to know the kind of initiative steps that has taken by the state Government to lead the developmental programmes, and Empowerment of Scheduled Tribes the Gawda, Kunbi and velip Communities in Goa. The State tribal development policies, Strategies, Programmers are the political Manifestos during all election of the political parties which forms the Government. It is out of this Strategies that the parties the making of Government boast of access to basic amenities, and financial and a rapid expansion in rural infrastructure development in the tribal area. However, what the political party promises during the entire election period and the propaganda that follows for the entire election year are conveniently and deliberately forgotten once they form the Government. Though certain constitutional safeguards Which are provided for upliftment of Scheduled tribe there is in fact no Significant Economic, Social and Political awareness required for the fulfillment and achievement of lofty objective
that are enshrined in the various provisions of
constitution and the situations in the tiny vibrant state like even Goa is not exception to it. The Present condition of the Scheduled Tribes in Goa is such that their various developmental policies, Strategies, Programmes are not percolated in tribal dominated areas during the successive five year plans and therefore, it has also had adverse impact on their socio-economic mobility. Therefore, the Scheduled Tribes remain abysmally backward and socially excluded, still living in harsh environments.
