REGULATIONS & ACTS

PROTECTIVE AND ANTI-EXPLOITATIVE LEGISLATIONS

    The Scheduled Tribe and Scheduled Castes are the most vulnerable among the weaker sections of the society. On account of their ignorance and simplicity they fall an easy pray to the unscrupulous money lenders and middlemen who exploit them in many ways.

    To curb the exploitation several protective regulations have been enacted from time to time and subsequently amended to cope up with the changing situations. Some of the important enactment are stated below.
