Earlier, theTribal Affairs Ministry has approved a proposal to provide a community certificate to the tribal community, including Christian and Buddhist tribes, to enable them to benefit from any welfare schemes. Several tribes in India still do not have official recognition as a "Scheduled Tribe," which means that they are not able to access certain government welfare schemes and reservations.

The decision to include Christian and Buddhist tribes in the list of tribes came after the Union Minister of Tribal Affairs paid a visit to Nagaland and interacted with the tribal communities there. The Ministry is working hard to remove any obstacles that stand in the way of issuing community certificates to tribal communities. In a statement, the Minister said that the Tribal Affairs Ministry would contact the concerned districts and states to resolve any issues with the issuance of the community certificate.

The move is seen as a significant step towards ensuring that all tribal communities in India can access the rights and benefits due to them.

This news is a testament to the government's commitment to ensuring the welfare and recognition of all tribal communities in India.
