Anthropology as is being practiced in the Anthropological Survey of India is unique with a truly holistic flavour. From very early on, it endeavored to bring in multi-disciplinary teams recruiting Anthropologists of both Cultural/Social and Biological varieties along with Linguists, Human Ecologists, Biochemists, Psychologists and Statisticians who collaborate with each other and with the National and State level institutions, while interacting with the renowned scholars of other countries to study man in all his entirety, not just for the sake of study but to create a humane concern for one another and to help tackle problems of contemporary relevance. Anthrological Survey of India swung in to an all round modernization drive by employing state-of-the art technologies and infrastructural development in a big way to go ahead with its mandate.

 
 
The Survey has so far produced 49 ethnographic films on the tribes and folk communities of India. Some of the documentation like the Onges of Little Andaman, the Jaungs of Orissa, the Todas of Nilgiri Hills, the Abors of NEFA, the Garos of Meghalaya, the Riangs of Tripura, the Asurs of Chotanagpur, Arts and Crafts of Manbhum have been acclaimed for detailed anthropological documentation. These are preserved as archival material for the use of researchers.
