A respectful way to introduce the theme 'Adivasis' would be to:
A.Portraying them as rich and powerful forest people.
B.Showcasing their colourful costumes.
C.Screening a tribal song and dance.✓ Correct
D.Discussing their primitive and rustic pasts.
Explanation
Introducing Adivasis through a tribal song and dance respects their cultural heritage and presents them as people with rich artistic traditions, without stereotyping or exoticising them. Options 1 and 4 reinforce stereotypes (either glorifying or labelling them as primitive). Option 2 reduces their identity to mere costumes. Option 3 presents them in their own cultural expression, which is a dignified and authentic introduction to their lives and traditions.
