Title

Socio-economic Condition of the Tribal Women Tea Workers in North Bengal- A 20th Century Perspective.

Abstract

The Tribal Communities are considered one of the most primitive inhabitants of West Bengal. They have emigrated in this state from various places of the Country having lost their land and sources of earning. In North Bengal, tribal community is mainly constituted by the tribal group like Oraon, santal and Munda. These ethnic groups are grossly engaged working in several tea gardens. Both tribal men and women contribute immensely to the economic development of this region but unfortunately they are treated as one of the marginalized sections of the society even in the twenty first century. If we look back to the previous century we can easily assess the prime cause of their backwardness both in their social and economic lives. Throughout 20th century there has been a rapid growth in the number of tea gardens in North Bengal. Tea has emerged as a strong contributor in the economic development of this area. Gradually it has been turned to a profit making business in which the planters or the garden authority often deprive the workers of their wages and other deserving facilities. The scenario is heart rending in case of women workers who are subject to various deprivations in their socio economic life. This unfortunate multitude has still remained under the dark phase of unprivileged existential struggle. This paper is a sincere effort to illuminate the deplorable socio-economic condition of these tribal women workers against the backdrop of the 20th century.
