Abstract:

We examine the relative fortunes of the historically disadvantaged scheduled castes and tribes (SC/ST) in India in terms of their education attainment, occupation choices, consumption and wages. We study the period 1983–2005 using household survey data from successive rounds of the National Sample Survey. We find that this period has been characterized by a significant convergence of education, occupation distribution, wages and consumption levels of SC/STs toward non-SC/ST levels. Using various decomposition approaches we find that the improvements in education account for a major part of the

Abstract:

Scheduled castes and scheduled tribes form a fundamental component of the population. These groups are recognized as socio- economically backward and deprived groups in India. In the Indian Constitution, special preferences should be given to these dejected groups. Still, these communities remained backward not only in economic terms but also in terms of literacy, health, etc. The spatial patterns of distribution and growth of the Scheduled Castes would be essential to understanding the causes of lack and discrimination. The SCs are mostly intensely found in the alluvial plains and live by wor

Abstract:

This article revisits the promulgation of the Scheduled Caste Order 1950, appended to Article 341 of the Indian Constitution. The Order provides the list of Scheduled Castes (SCs) and sets the prerequisites for a series of robust entitlements to India’s ‘untouchable castes’. The Order of 1950, however, also serves as a dampener to the equality claims of low castes of non-Hindu denominations by precluding them from the entitlements that the SC status promises. The Order has been amended twice—in 1956 to include Sikh low castes and in 1990 to accommodate the neo-Buddhists. However, the untouchab

Abstract:

Education is the process of acquiring knowledge that prepares a thriving present and leads to a stable future. It improves social status, cultural and intellectual qualities- the means of generating civic society. Some sections of the Indian society are still struggling to attain education. The accessibility of quality education to all sections of the society is still a dream in the country. Scheduled caste population form a large section of the Indian population who are often marginalised and deprived of social, educational, economic and health benefits due to ignorance and socio-cultural mil

This article examines the inequality and poverty across socio-religious groups in Maharashtra. It also examines the relative strength of factors affecting inequality and poverty and decomposes the differences in income between scheduled castes (SCs) and Hindu high castes (HHCs) based on the 68th National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) survey on consumption expenditure. The results show that consumption expenditure is substantially low among marginalised communities leading to high inter-group inequality. The relative strength of the factors affecting earnings across socio-religious groups s

Abstract:

Abstract: Indian culture is highly stratified due to its linguistic diversity, religious affiliations, caste system, and regional loyalties. Among the most economically deprived and marginalized groups in India are the Scheduled Castes (SCs), who continue to face significant social and educational disadvantages. Representing 16.6% of the country's total population (Census of India, 2011); the Scheduled Castes remain one of the most disadvantaged segments of Indian society. A substantial portion of this population is illiterate and unaware of the importance of education, which exacerbates their

Abstract This chapter presents the empirical evidence on the extent of employment discrimination faced by the scheduled caste workers during 2004–05 and 2017–18 in public and private sectors. More specifically this chapter addresses the question ‘to what extent the low participation of the SC in regular salaried jobs, particularly in the private sector, is due to differences between them and the higher castes in endowment factors like education? And to what extent the differences are due to caste discrimination in hiring?’ Empirical evidence showed that the low probability of employment for th

However, gaps continue to persist; nearly 30 per cent of women in the country are not literate as yet, disparities amongst states on female literacy is stark, female literacy rates for Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST) is an area of concern, and in particular a sharp decline is observed in female enrolment at secondary and higher-secondary levels of education.

Abstract:

The chapter begins with a brief description of how the autonomous Scheduled Caste (SC) movement developed in colonial Bengal, spearheaded by two communities—the Rajbansis in the north and the Namasudras in the eastern districts. It looks critically at how space was important for their social mobilisation in the early twentieth century. When that cultural habitat was threatened by the Partition, they could hardly remain unaffected. It looks at how Partition politics affected and disrupted the organised SC movement in Bengal, taking the narrative through the election of 1946, the riots in Calcut
