Abstract
In a country of the vastness and cultural diversity of India the problems of ethnic minorities are of great importance. This paper discusses some of the issues relating particularly to the ethnic-linguistic groups and, to a lesser extent, the ethnic-religious groups. Parts I and II present the actual situations as reflected in the Census of 1971 and the preceding censuses; parts III, IV and V discuss their political and other implications.
