The Government has also asked the industry to consider how they could increase the “capabilities” of the SC/ST population in the country.
Under these, attention has been drawn to the Ministry of Social Justice’s suggestions on the matter:
Industry could fund ashram schools for the ST population.
Industry fund infrastructure and teaching facilities in 100 Ekalavya model residential schools for tribals from class VI to class XII.
Industry sponsor some ST students for studies in good private schools in each state.
Industry conduct a sports talent hunt among tribal children and nurture talent.
