Why do you think that the percentage of Adivasi girls and boys leaving school is higher than that of any other group?
Solution
The reason for a higher percentage of Adivasi girls and boys leaving school than that of any other group is as under:
- In the Adivasis social system, every one of the family rights from children who can move freely to women has to do some activity of his/ her share to survive. So, children look after the goats, sheep, etc. in the grazing field. For this purpose, they leave school in a higher percentage.
- The Adivasis have a very rigid culture of their economic activity. They can’t come out of this long chain of livelihood very easily. This is the other reason for their leaving school in a higher percentage than any other group.
