Abstract: Emotional Intelligence is the ability to identify and manage one’s own emotions and the emotion of others. Adolescence is the most critical stage to the emotional problems, thus educating adolescents about emotions and helping them to deal with others as well as their actions can be very useful in their daily struggles. Adolescents who are academically brilliant may sometimes be socially inept. Thus, emotional intelligence will help an adolescent to reduce stress by decreasing conflict, improving relationships and understanding. Numerous researches had showed that emotional intelligence differs according to community differences. The scheduled tribes are economically inferior and they are routinely marginalized and deprived of their access to fundamental resources including health and educational services. Therefore, the present paper is an attempt to review the emotional intelligence of the tribal adolescent school students in India. The paper also attempted to highlight the importance of emotional intelligence on the overall development of adolescent tribal school students in India. Further, the paper also suggests some need based measures for improving emotional intelligence of different tribes of India. Key words: Emotional Intelligence, adolescent, scheduled tribes
