JP Nadda assured the tribal communities of bolstering their development through various welfare schemes of the central government.

Asserting that the BJP was indebted to tribals for their silent contribution to the country, the BJP leader said they had waged a war against the mighty British way back in 1780s, much before the national freedom movement, and hailed tribal icons like Birsa Munda, Tilka Manjhi, Sidho Kanho and Budhu Bhagat.
