Abstract
India is a place with a diverse population. Homogeneity is an alien concept to Indian life. The way of life is very heterogeneous. ‘Unity in Diversity’ is the phrase most talked about in India. Tribes in India, although integral to the whole of India but diverse in their origin, culture, customary practices, everyday life, rites, rituals and occasional ceremonies that what we call a ‘tribal way of life’. Each tribe has a distinct identity, customs, traditions, culture, and way of life. . India is home to a vast number of indigenous people who have remained unspoiled by contemporary life. India boasts the world's biggest number of tribal peoples. They are still featured as the most marginalized population, living in most backward and remote territories, and not enjoying the fruits of development happening in other parts of India. Their indigenous body of knowledge is still waiting to be recognized, their folks are not mainstreamed, and their origins are unexplored. This article will outline the history of the Gujjar tribes in India, with a focus on the Gujjars of Jammu and Kashmir.
