Tribal Working Women in Organized Sector: A Sociological Study in Raichur District

The Scheduled tribes or tribes are isolated caste or community groups earlier living in forests and hilly areas. Each of the tribe has its own unique features and social culture. Due to their conventional and orthodox culture, tribes are away from civilized societies. Now, due to decrease in forests, they are migrated to villages and towns. By gaining from the Government welfare schemes, few of the tribes are getting education and employment. Many of the women belonging to scheduled tribes are also working in the Government sector. As their social culture is entirely different, but educated and employed, it is essential to know whether their social culture has been changed. Hence, a sociological study of tribal working women in Raichur district of Karnataka was made. The paper described details of the study.
