In 2011 census the total count of STs living in India was 104.2 million which was 84.3 million in 2001. So it rises from 8.2% to 8.6% of total population of India. The growth rate in population of STs was 23.7% from 2001 to 2011. The population density of STs was different for different states like- Lakshadweep 94.8% Uttaranchal 2.9% Mizoram 94.4% Uttar Pradesh 0.6%
