Abstract: 
Through social welfare programmes, the state of Chhattisgarh seeks to create revenue, reduce unemployment, and provide socioeconomic circumstances for tribal growth. The welfare system, however, is badly impacted by the variety of problems. The lack of control over resources and assets, lack of education and skills, malnutrition, inadequate access to shelter and clean water, vulnerability, crime and victimisation are just a few reasons why tribals are falling behind. Other reasons include geographic and cultural isolation, inadequate health facilities, and the inability to achieve food security. Their life will be tough to live because of all these difficulties. The government works to help the Tribes through different social programmes in light of these problems.This article examines the socio-economic status of the tribal communities and the government schemes introduced by the Governments of Chhattisgarh to assist the tribals communities.
