== Diversity of tribes ==
The diversity in the tribes across the state comes from differences in heredity, lifestyle, cultural traditions, social structure, economic structure, religious beliefs and language and speech. Due to the different linguistic, cultural and geographical environments, the diverse tribal world of Madhya Pradesh has been largely cut off from the mainstream of development.

Madhya Pradesh holds 1st rank among all the States/Union Territories (UTs) in terms of Special Tribal population and 12th rank in respect of the proportion of ST population to total population.<ref name=mp>{{cite web|url =http://censusindia.gov.in/Tables_Published/SCST/dh_st_madhya_pradesh.pdf |title = Madhya Pradesh: DATA HIGHLIGHTS: THE SCHEDULED TRIBES, Census of India 2001 |publisher = Govt. of Madhya Pradesh |accessdate = 2010-04-09 }}</ref>
