Solution
The correct option is C Tribals
Adivasis – the term literally means ‘original inhabitants’ – are communities who lived, and often continue to live, in close association with forests. Around 8 per cent of India’s population is Adivasi.
Adivasi societies are particularly prominent in Andhra
Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, West
Bengal and some north-eastern states, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Many
smaller tribal groups are quite sensitive to ecological degradation caused by
modernisation.
