The provisions in the Fifth Schedule and Sixth Schedule of the Constitution of India are made in order to protect the interests of Scheduled Tribes.

The Fifth Schedule deals with the administration and control of Scheduled Areas, which are areas predominantly inhabited by Scheduled Tribes. It provides for special provisions to safeguard the rights and interests of Scheduled Tribes in these areas, including land rights, protection from exploitation, and preservation of tribal culture and customs.

The Sixth Schedule deals with the administration of autonomous regions in certain states with a substantial tribal population. It provides for the establishment of autonomous district councils and regional councils to govern these areas. The objective is to protect the social, cultural, and economic interests of the tribal communities residing in these regions.

Therefore, the provisions in the Fifth Schedule and Sixth Schedule of the Constitution of India are primarily made to protect the interests of Scheduled Tribes.
