Summary, etc. Part XVI of the Constitution of the Republic of India (1950) deals with special provisions relating to certain classes; and Article 330, the first in this part, specifies the main classes; to which the provisions will apply. The term Scheduled Castes appears there alongwith the Scheduled Tribes. The term Scheduled Castes does not stand for a particular caste but it is a group of such people from among the untouchables who have been declared as Scheduled Castes by the President of India.<br/><br/>Ecologically, the majority of the Scheduled Tribes live in isolated or partly isolated regions of hills and forests and in some ways, their way of life are still characterised by homogeneity distinctiveness and self-sufficiency. The Harijans, on the other hand, are scattered on the agricultural plains, and are "part societies" owing to their constant interactions with the dominant castes of the respective villages.<br/><br/>Demographically, while the Scheduled Tribes are concen trated in certain regions of the State (though there are certain scattered pockets also) and are in majority in the respective areas the Scheduled Castes are largely scattered in the high-and clean-caste dominated villages all over the country. Economically, again the majority of the Scheduled Tribes have their legal right over land and or forest resources and are masters of their respective habitat, but in case of Scheduled Castes, by and large, they are landless, and in some cases service castes, and all of them are dependent on the high and or clean castes for earning their livelihood. From the point of view of social structure the Scheduled Tribes have developed their own style of life including their traditional customary laws for excercising social and political control, and whenever there have been intolerable interferences from outside, they have reacted adversely, and in several cases even violently. In case of the Scheduled Castes, how ever, from the very ancient time, they have been an integral part of the Hindu caste hierarchy, and have continued to exist as a part of the Hindu Jajmani system. Owing to mythological, historical and contextual reasons, alongwith their associations with the impure occupations certain stigma in their social relationship had been added, and they have been considered ritually impure by the hign caste Hindus, though they enjoyed important functional roles. These have led to different types of social inequality and disability and even today, some times, they are subjected to inhuman atrocities to which they can not revolt effectively.
