Abstract
Several studies conducted in the past among various tribal groups revealed wide variation in their health and nutritional status characterised by their individual socio-economic and socio-biological conditions as well as socio-cultural practices. The environmental factors in which the tribe lives and health care facilities and their utilization also significantly determine the overall health status of the group.
