Furthermore, the government has expressed its intention to introduce a 3 per cent reservation quota for Adivasi and Tea tribes in all government jobs. 

This move aims to promote inclusivity and create a level playing field for individuals belonging to these communities. 

By offering equitable opportunities in employment, the government hopes to empower Adivasi and Tea tribes by ensuring their rightful representation across various sectors.

The Chief Minister's call to action reflects the government's commitment to tackling the Adivasi community's concerns. The government hoped to establish an environment of mutual collaboration and shared responsibility by cooperating with organisations such as the Adivasi Kalyan Parishad.

Himanta Biswa Sarma's message emphasises the need to work together to achieve social justice. By teaming together, the government and the Adivasi Kalyan Parishad can produce meaningful and long-term improvements that will improve the lives of the Adivasi and Tea tribes.

It's a positive first step, as the government takes proactive steps to ensure the overall development of marginalised populations. The government strives to develop a more inclusive society in which every person has an equal opportunity to prosper and flourish by promoting collaboration and adopting laws that address fundamental inequities.
