Abstract:
This paper analyzes the writing on OBC literature to contribute, presumably in a bit of way, toward opening up a dialogue among them regarding what constitutes meaningful literary efforts and selecting OBC literature because OBC has not much mattered yet, not in the aura of postcolonial, cultural, and subaltern studies. In order to initiate a dialogue about the undersideof the literary world, the term OBC literature appears as one of the mechanisms for producing social, political, and educational consciousness in society. The existence of this consciousness, shaped by the backward commissions,

Abstract:
Information is facts about someone or something, which provides the answer to a question of some kind or resolves uncertainty. As per John Locke human beings are born with no information and their mind is blank slate or tabula rasa at the time of birth, which turned into a storehouse of knowledge as a result of information gained from experience, observation and perception. The process of learning starts right from the birth of a child and continues till the last breath. Thus, continuous learning for expansion of the base of knowledge has converted the societies into knowledge societies where

Abstract. Background: Caste, tribal, and religious associations, which are perhaps the most important aspects of personal and social lives in India, have been neglected in Indian suicide research. Aim: To investigate suicide rates in India by religion, caste, tribe, and other backward classes over the period 2014–2015. Method: This study acquired unpublished suicide data from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) for 2014 and 2015 including caste, tribal, and religious associations of suicide cases. National and state-specific suicide rates (2014–2015) were then calculated for Hindus, Musli

Abstract:
Complaints filed in Indian police stations offer a unique lens on the marginality and violence experienced by a range of castes recognised as Other Backward Classes (OBC), beneficiaries of the state’s reservation policies. Focusing on reports registered by a caste group within the OBC category, this article illuminates two separate forms of violent conflict: inter-caste conflicts over scarce resources within the Nishad/Mallah caste and their competition and strife with other upwardly mobile disadvantaged groups. The failure of the state to offer vulnerable groups protection is a critical eleme

Abstract:
The rise of the other backward classes (OBCs) is certainly one of the main developments in the Hindi-belt politics over the last ten years. The OBCs are castes in the Indian social system that are situated above the Untouchables but below the forward castes (the “twice born,” Brahmins, Kshatriyas [warriors] and Vaishyas [merchants]) and the intermediate castes (mostly peasant proprietors and even dominant castes). They form the bulk of the Shudras—the fourth category (varna) of the classical Hindu social arrangement. The OBCs, whose professional activity is often as field-workers or artisans,

<strong>Abstract</strong> In India, an education in commerce opens doors to professional growth, successful entrepreneurship, and economic empowerment. However, socially disadvantaged groups including those from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), the Other Backward Classes (OBC), religious minorities, economically weakened sections (EWS), and women from marginalized backgrounds continue to face unequal access to this stream.

AbstractSocial justice is a key concept in the theory and practice of affirmative action. In India, social justice has come to serve as shorthand for affirmative action for disadvantaged groups, mainly lower castes. This paper provides a detailed analytical interpretation of social justice in a landmark legislative debate on quotas in India, namely the 1990 Mandal debate. It unpacks political rhetoric to reveal distinct conceptions of social justice, shows that claims for quotas for Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in the bureaucracy drew substantially on principles of social justice and democrac

Abstract:
Since independence, India’s focus has consistently remained on the development of small industrial sector for its role in promoting industrial democracy and providing employment to local population. During the last six-decade period after independence, India has continuously modified and upgraded the policy relating to small sector which is now popularly known as micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector. The enterprises in this sector are owned by population belonging to different social groups such as scheduled caste (SC), scheduled tribe (ST), other backward classes (OBC) and others

“Reservation Policy: An Analysis of Scheduled Tribes Reservation on Higher Education in Manipur.” This paper examines how marginalized social groups are admitted to Manipur’s universities, notably Manipur University. In Manipur, the reservation proportion is as follows: unreserved 40%, economically weaker 10%, Scheduled Tribes (ST) 31%, Scheduled Castes (SC) 2%, and Other Backward Classes (OBC) (17%). This research focused on Manipur’s shortage of quota provisions in higher education admissions. Tribal peoples, who already have 31% of the reservation opportunity, were outraged by this. All min

Abstract:
With more than 3000 castes and all the major religious groups of the world, India is certainly a personification of religious and cultural diversity. The Constitution makers were very well aware of the fact that this diversity entails a form of segmental equality owing to which the idea of compensatory discrimination was included in the constitution. Therefore, through Article 16(4) and 46, reservation in matters of public education and employment were provided for the upliftment of the backward and deprived classes, namely the Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST).

En Inde, principalement à partir des premières élections tenues au suffrage universel en 1951, la suprématie des hautes castes sur le parti dominant, le parti du Congrès, a largement contribué au maintien en marge du processus de décision des élus issus d’autres groupes et catégories de la société indienne. L’objectif de cette étude est alors de décrire et d’analyser les ressorts de la représentation politique aussi bien symbolique, descriptive que substantive des élus appartenant à la catégorie des Other Backward Classes (« autres classes défavorisées », OBC), catégorie située entre les deux
