The Gujarat government announced a Rs 1,500 crore allocation to support over 32,000 tribal beneficiaries during the celebrations of Birsa Munda’s birth anniversary.
The state of Gujarat has earmarked Rs 1,500 crore to aid more than 32,000 tribal beneficiaries as part of the celebrations for the birth anniversary of freedom fighter Birsa Munda. The allocation is part of the government’s ongoing efforts to strengthen tribal welfare and development.
The funds will be disbursed through the state’s tribal welfare department and will cover a range of initiatives, including livelihood support, skill development, and infrastructure improvements in tribal areas. Officials said the disbursement will begin in the coming weeks, with a detailed schedule to be released by the department.
The announcement comes amid a broader push by the Gujarat administration to honour Birsa Munda’s legacy by investing in the communities that have historically been associated with his struggle. The government highlighted that the allocation will help bridge gaps in access to education, health services, and economic opportunities for tribal populations.
“By channeling this significant investment into tribal communities, we aim to create sustainable development pathways that reflect the spirit of Birsa Munda’s fight for justice,” a spokesperson for the tribal welfare department said.
