Week-long celebrations from November 15 to November 22 2021, to celebrate and commemorate the glorious history of tribal people, culture and achievements.

 

The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday (November 10), has approved the declaration of November 15 as Janjatiya Gaurav Divas dedicated to the memory of brave tribal freedom fighters so that coming generations could know about their sacrifices about the country. India's freedom struggle was strengthened by several movements by tribal communities such as Santhals, Tamars, Kols, Bhils, Khasis and Mizos to name a few. Their immense courage and supreme sacrifice marked the revolutionary movements and struggles organized by the tribal communities. Tribal movements in different regions against the British colonial rule were linked with the national freedom struggle and inspired Indians all over the country. However, the public at large is not much aware of these tribal heroes. Pursuant to the speech of the Hon'ble Prime Minister on Independence Day of 2016, the Government of India has sanctioned 10 tribal freedom fighter museums across the country.

The date is the birth anniversary of Sri Birsa Munda, who is revered as Bhagwan by tribal communities across the country. Birsa Munda fought bravely against the country against the exploitative system of the British colonial system and spearheaded the movement against British oppression, giving a call for 'Ulgulan' (Revolution). The declaration acknowledges the glorious history and cultural heritage of tribal communities. The day will be celebrated every year and would recognize the tribals' efforts to preserve cultural heritage and promote Indian values of valour, hospitality, and national pride. Tribal Freedom Fighter Museum at Ranchi, where Birsa Munda breathed his last, will be inaugurated by the Hon'ble Prime Minister.

The government of India has planned week-long celebrations starting from November 15 to November 22 2021, to celebrate and commemorate 75 years of the glorious history of tribal people, culture and achievements.

As part of the celebration, several activities have been planned jointly with State Governments, and the theme behind each activity is to showcase the achievements of tribals in the Indian Freedom struggle, various welfare measures taken by the Government of India in education, health, livelihood, infrastructure and skill development. The events will also display the unique tribal cultural heritage, their contributions in freedom struggle, practices, rights, traditions, cuisines, health, education and livelihood.
