This is the 2nd of a two-part series on economic backwardness of STs in Jharkhand. The 1st part looked at the increase in their economic backwardness over time.

The first part of this series explained how the Scheduled Tribe (ST) population in Jharkhand has fallen behind economically, when compared to other communities in the state as well as the community itself outside Jharkhand. The second and last part of this series will try and locate the reasons for this in Jharkhand’s economy and flag factors which can help reduce this inequality.
