A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CAREER ASPIRATION LEVEL BETWEEN TRIBAL AND NON-TRIBAL STUDENTS IN PATULIA GRAM PANCHAYET OF NORTH 24 PARGANA DISTRICT IN WEST BENGAL

Abstract

India possesses the second highest tribal concentration. The Government of India has launched different measures to upgrade their socio-economic scenario, literacy rate along with that employment status. The reservation policy which is supposed to play the role of a boon to uplift their social status and stimulate upwards mobility fails to do so as backlogs in different government services have proved that. If a part of a country stays backwards in progress and prosperity, it affects the whole scenario of a country. To take adequate measures, it is essential to evaluate their career aspirations level in respect of non-tribal students to conclude up a point where they need enthusiasm and motivation to make a lengthy education portfolio and to end up with a positive contribution to society. The present paper has been conducted on 86 students of Patulia Gram Panchayet area, North 24 PGS, among which 40 students belong to the tribal community and 46 are from the non-tribal community. A questionnaire encompassing 25 questions is formed to analyse their career aspirations. The study has found out the fact that there is a significant mean difference between tribal and non-tribal students in career aspirations
