Ministry of Tribal Affairs Secretary Ranjana Chopra reviewed tribal welfare schemes in Indore and Khargone districts on Thursday, visiting an Eklavya Model Residential School and a weaving centre. At the EMRS in Morod village, she inspected digital smart classrooms and spoke with students from Classes 6 to 12 about their education.
The school educates Scheduled Tribe children, including those from Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups, under the PM-JANMAN and Dharti Aaba Janjatiya Gram Utkarsh Abhiyan schemes. Later, at the Bunkar Suvidha Kendra in Maheshwar, she met women weavers who produce 1,000 to 2,000 Maheshwari sarees daily. One weaver recently participated in a fashion show in Delhi. Chopra also interacted with a NEET-qualified aspirant and Forest Rights Act title holders.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The EMRS network is a central pillar of the government's strategy to bridge educational gaps for ST communities, with over 700 schools sanctioned nationwide. The review in Indore, a district with a significant tribal population, signals a focus on outcome tracking rather than just fund releases. The mention of a NEET-qualified aspirant and a weaver who featured in a Delhi fashion show highlights the government's use of individual success stories to showcase scheme impact. Next watch: the Ministry's quarterly progress report on PM-JANMAN fund utilization due in July.
