Fifth Schedule status

Not within a Fifth Schedule Scheduled Area

No Presidential Order under paragraph 6 of the Fifth Schedule declares any Scheduled Area in Arunanchal Pradesh, so no part of this district is one and PESA does not apply. A different protection does apply here: the Bengal Eastern Frontier Regulation 1873 (Inner Line) and State land law; the Fifth Schedule has never been extended to it.

OrderMinistry of Tribal Affairs, Scheduled Areas declared under paragraph 6 of the Fifth Schedule to the Constitution

What the record shows

  • Half or more of the people counted here in 2011 were Scheduled Tribe: 87.8%, against 8.55% nationally.

  • Applicants for projects sited mainly in this district have declared 1,300 families to be displaced. The figure comes from their applications, and we have not verified it.

Each of these observations appears when a fixed rule is met by the figures on this page, so the same figures always give the same sentences. None of them is a view on whether a project should go ahead.
