The Tribal Affairs Ministry has launched 'Adi Sanskriti', a digital platform aimed at safeguarding tribal art forms, creating job opportunities, and connecting tribal communities globally. Developed in collaboration with Tribal Research Institutes, it integrates online courses, a socio-cultural repository, and a marketplace.

On Wednesday, the Tribal Affairs Ministry launched a pioneering digital initiative, 'Adi Sanskriti', to preserve and promote tribal art forms. This platform is expected to offer significant livelihood opportunities and connect tribal communities with the global audience.

Union Minister of State for Tribal Affairs, Durgadas Uikey unveiled the initiative during the National Conference on Adi Karmayogi Abhiyan at Bharat Mandapam.
