About This Book

The People of India project, a massive exercise carried out by the Anthropological Survey of India, has generated a wealth of information on the hundreds of communities, castes and tribes which exist in this country. The subjects covered include culture, society, location, language, script, biological variation, educational level, impact of development, food habits, rituals, and work practices.

For the present volume, project information was collected on the languages spoken and the scripts used within a kin group, at home and outside. Data was generated on community-specific languages (325), and on the scripts (25) in present use.
