Abstract Tribal development has become an emerging area of research in the present era. The successive regimes in India have placed priority on inclusive economic growth and social justice keeping tribal development in the realm of policy framework. In this pursuit several tribal development programmes have been undertaken to achieve development and welfare of tribals in the country. Despite quite a good number of measures undertaken by the government the tribals remained far from the mainstream of civilisation. Odisha is the homeland of 62 tribes and comprise second largest tribal population in the country. Of the total population in the state 22.8 percent are tribal and eight districts of the sate have more than 50 percent tribal population.(SCST-2015-Research, Govt of Odisha).The aim of this paper is to identify the infrastructural gap in analysing the institutional constraints in the process of tribal development trends in Odisha. The endeavour is to put in place the causes of institutional constraints and the nature and extent of tribal development in Kalahandi District of Odisha. The objective is to resolve how their traditional life styles, remoteness of habitations, disperses population etc have affected the trends of tribal development. The sole purpose of this paper is to identify different issues like indebtedness, low literacy level, malnutrition, poverty diseases and exploitation with other parameters to measure the nature and extent of tribal development. The study is done in Saralanji village of Medinipur panchyat in Kalahandi District.
