Tribals want converts out of ST list, plan Delhi stir

IndiaTimes Monday, 25 December 2023
Thousands of tribals, backed by RSS and Hindu groups, are planning to rally in Delhi in February to demand the removal of converted tribals from the Scheduled Tribes' list. The Janjati Suraksha Manch (JSM) is leading this campaign, arguing that converted tribals receive support from the Church and missionary institutions, giving them educational and financial advantages over non-converted tribals. Supporters of the de-listing campaign claim that converted tribals enjoy foreign funding, reservation benefits, and government benefits as a religious minority.
