Abstract

The Constitution of India provides special protection to the adivasi/tribal/indigenous people, who constitute more than 8 percent of the total population of India and who inhabit the remaining vestiges of forests in the country. The Fifth Schedule is one such constitutional safeguard that deals with administration and control of Scheduled Areas (areas with predominantly tribal population) in nine states. Nine districts in the state of Andhra Pradesh, which includes the district of Visakhapatnam too falls under the Fifth Schedule.
