The purpose of this study is to address the social concerns of elderly tribes and to raise awareness of marginalized people's challenges. The tribes are natural children who make up a sizable portion of the country's underdeveloped areas. They are marginalized and constitute the weakest segment of India's population in terms of ecology, economics, and education. The purpose of this study is to address the social concerns of elderly tribes and to raise awareness of marginalized people's challenges The study's primary objectives were to identify the socioeconomic, physical, and psychological problems encountered by elderly Irula tribe members; to assess the level of adjustment of elderly tribal members from the Irula community; and to make appropriate recommendations for senior tribal citizens' social security. This vulnerable group is described as those who are subjected to inequitable treatment or care as a result of their age or social status. They are more reliant on others and hence find it more difficult to subsist independently and to preserve their rights. Despite the extensive provisions of the Indian Constitution and other legislation, social injustice and exploitation of Scheduled Tribes and other vulnerable sections continue to exist. The need of awareness campaigns, gerontological counseling, and geriatric services must be stressed, as well as the necessity to provide welfare programs to aging tribes and their communities. Governments, non-governmental organizations, and other service providers must approach it together for the benefit of senior tribal residents.
