As with other basic services, access to quality health facilities, too have eluded tribal communities due to their distant, difficult and sparsely populated terrain.

With a vision of housing provision for all the tribal communities, more than 4.48 lakh tribal persons were assisted under various Central and State level Housing Scheme like Indira Aawas Yojana, Sardar Awas Yojana, individual housing, etc.

roviding water supply at the door step of every tribal household is essential in to improve the quality of life. Most of the tribal areas are characterised by hilly terrain, rocky sub strata and presence of forest on large chunks which makes the problem of supplying safe drinking water difficult. Water Supply and Sanitation Department through various water supply schemes viz, Individual or group piped water supply schemes, Hand Pumps are constructed to provide drinking water supply

Most of the Tribal population are engaged in agricultural for livelihood, therefore, improvement in irrigation facilities act as a special booster for them. Greater focus on group wells and lift irrigation based check dams is needed in order to support agriculture in tribal areas and reduce dependence on monsoon for irrigation...
