Interdependency of tribal rights

Abstract

Rights being a bundle of interest are vested on individuals for their protection, as the state is under an obligation to protect their rights, this forming the genesis of the social contract theory. Every right has a corresponding duty, we as citizens have fundamental rights and the government has a duty to protect the rights. So far as the theory of capability by Amartya Sen is considered, on losing one thing one loses many others things as well, the meaning of which is if two rights are inextricably connected to each other than on the safeguard of one the other is already taken care or else safeguarding the other right become easy and feasible. On the touch stone of the theory of Capability by Sen, the researcher will conduct a doctrinal study as to interdependency of tribal social, economic and cultural rights with their right to food. The criteria on which interdependency is based will be a guiding light for our policy makers. Taking into purview the various statues encompassing various rights of tribals the researcher will analyse and try to find out the basis on which the rights have been based, tracing out its connectivity and linkage.   As it is very evident that vesting rights alone will not lead to development what is more important is the enforcement of this right. Rights without enforcement are just as Constitution bereft of Constitutionalism
