Every year, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs invites two tribal guests from each State/Union Territory with a Liaison Officer, for its Republic Day Celebrations from 22nd January to 1St February. These include a visit to Parliament, sight seeing in Delhi and a metro ride, visit to Agra and Mathura, besides these tribal guests being officially a part of the guest list for the RD Parade, Beating the Retreat, PM's NCC Parade, PM at home, President at home and so on. The Reception hosted by the Minister of Tribal Affairs is a culmination of the RDC of the Ministry before they go to Agra and Mathura.
The occasion became more joyous with announcement that the Ministry had won the first position in the panel of Judges Section for its Republic Day Tableau on the theme of EMRS. On this occasion, the Commissioner, NESTS handed over the trophy to Minister for Tribal Affairs, Shri Arjun Munda.

The Ministry of Tribal Affairs established Eklavya Model Residential Schools as part of the EMRS programme to ensure that quality education reaches the tribal communities living in the most remote areas of the nation, albeit with all modern conveniences. This concept is similar to how education was delivered in the midst of nature during the time of Gurukuls in ancient India. The Ministry's focus on "Nari Shakti," a symbol of girl education that ensures equal enrolment of tribal boys and girls at EMRSs, was highlighted in the tableau's front section. It also highlighted the indigenous pupils' aspiration to lead the world through education. Eklavya's bow and arrow-shaped archetypal pen, representing learning, depicts the one-eyed mission with which tribal students of EMRSs construct their future and achieve their ambitions. The rear projection of the knowledge tree symbolised the transmission of information and wisdom from EMRS teachers to students as well as one of the goals of EMRSs, the preservation of tribal culture in its natural environment.
