Replying to an un-starred question in Rajya Sabha today the Union Tribal Affairs Minister of State Shri Drugadas Uikey informed that Ministry of Tribal Affairs had sanctioned 11 Tribal Freedom Fighters' Museums (TFFMs) in 10 States on the basis of the proposals received from the State Governments with the aim to recognize and create awareness on the sacrifices and contributions of tribal people in India's freedom movement. Ministry of Tribal Affairs funds these projects under the Centrally Sponsored Scheme- "Support to Tribal Research Institute" and "Proviso to Article 275 (1)" based on the additional requirements and proposals received from State Governments who are responsible for the selection of land, preparation of Detailed Project Report (DPR) and construction of these museums. State-wise details of Tribal Freedom Fighters' Museums indicating year of sanction, approved cost of project, Ministry's share, actual expenditure by the Ministry and present status of the Tribal Freedom Fighter's Museum is at-
