Detailed Solution

According to the 2011 census report, the Adivasi community's total percentage is just 8.6 per cent in India. The term "Adivasis" is used to refer to the tribal communities in the country. A small percentage of Adivasis reside in India's important industrial and mining areas. Adivasis are believed to practise religions like Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam.
