Author:
Abstract:
As a constitutional democracy, India ensures that every individual has equal rights. However, because of things like historical injustices, social exclusion, economic disadvantage, and ethnic prejudice, some groups of people still experience systematic marginalization. Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), women, children, religious minorities, people with disabilities, and others are examples of these marginalized groups. This study investigates the current socioeconomic circumstances of these villages using secondary data and qualitative analysis. The report highlights the necessity of improving their economic empowerment, social fairness, poverty reduction strategies, and access to opportunities. It assesses how well the government's current programs and policies for inclusion and advancement are working. Additionally, the study suggests inclusive policies aimed at enhancing social integration, education, healthcare, capacity building, quality of life, and sustainable economic development for India's underprivileged people.
Keywords:Marginalized Communities, Cutting-Edge Issues, Social Equality, Government Initiatives, empowerment, Constitutional Provisions.
