New Delhi, Jan 22 (IANS): The Madhya Pradesh government has decided to showcase a tableau depicting Tribal Museum of the state in Republic Day parade.

The museum is situated in Bhopal, which centres around the life of tribals, their tradition of indigenous knowledge, art, craft and their aesthetic sense, and throws light upon the different dimensions of the tribal heritage of the state.
