Solution

Dear Student
  • Adivasis practise a range of tribal religions that are different from Islam, Hinduism and Christianity.
  • These often involve the worship of ancestors, village and nature spirits like – ‘mountain-spirits’, ‘river-spirits’, ‘animal-spirits’, etc.
  • The village spirits are often worshipped at specific sacred groves within the village boundary while the ancestral ones are usually worshipped at home.
  • Adivasis have their own languages (most of them radicallydifferent from and possibly as old as Sanskrit).
