Tulasi Munda is a noted social activist from Indian state of Orissa who was awarded Padma Shri in 2001 by Government of India. Tulsi Munda has done a lot of work to spread literacy among the tribal people. Tulsi Mundahas released hundreds of tribal children from a future as exploited daily labourers by setting up a school in Orissa’s mining area. As a girl, Tulsi Munda had herself worked in these mines as a labourer. It is an interesting fact that when tribal children go to their schools, they are out-performing many children attending general schools in the rest of the state.[citation needed]
Padmashree Tulsi Munda pioneered the phenomenon of growing strength of women in Orissa.
