ST demand is being opposed by the STs. Kurmis, who inhabit West Bengal, Jharkhand, and Odisha, have revived the agitation for ST status. They were included among the communities classified as STs in the 1931 Census and were excluded from the ST list in 1950. The Adivasi Kurmi

The Hindu today, i.e. 13th October 2025, reported that 32 tribes of Jharkhand took out a rally to protest the skirmish community’s demand for Scheduled Tribe (ST) status. They stated that this was a token protest and if any attempt is made to give ST status to Kurmis, Jharkhand
