Detailed Solution

Adivasis are related to the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers Act.
The Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act of 2006 was passed by the union government. The final Act's introduction indicates that it aims to correct historical injustices against populations who live in forests by recognising their rights to land and resources. Their right to a homestead, arable land, grazing land, and non-timber forest products is recognised by this Act. The Act also emphasises that forest residents have a right to the preservation of their forests and their biological diversity. Thus, the act aims to protect the rights of the Adivasis.
