Abstract:
India is one of the most populated countries, where not all people can access education. However, a portion of people lag behind due to proper education and training. This article aims to discuss marginalized groups who face limited access to opportunities, disadvantages, and unequal treatment in various aspects of life, such as education, employment and explore empowering and skill development programmes launched by the government of India. The study reviews scholarly and governmental articles to fulfil the aims of this article. It can be seen in a developing country, where some peoples access to all opportunities, and some peoples face difficulties accessing opportunities, particularly in education, so dropout rates are gradually increasing. Knowledge and skills are essential elements of the socio-economic development of a nation. At the same time, the Indian government launched various vocational training and empowerment schemes through the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment (MoSJ&E) to support the marginalized people.
