The book discusses the educational achievements and occupational mobility among the Scheduled Castes in India, the group that is a large section of Indian population (called as Dalit), was deprived of their basic legitimate and human rights to live with dignity. The book shows that, the second generation of Scheduled Castes is highly mobile as compared to their fathers’ generation. It also attempts to measure the impact of Inclusive Policy provided by the Government of India. In this book, author found that, after the religious conversion under the leadership of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, the Mahars converted to Buddhism. Therefore, the Buddhist community is more aware about the occupational development as compared to other communities. Hence, the development of the Buddhists could be treated as an ideal model for all the Backward Classes in India.
Attempts have been made in this study to present an over-all profile of the Scheduled Castes from different dimensions i.e., facts, figures and their interpretations, the policy of segregation of a sizable section of Indian population on the basis of caste.
This volume represents as accurate a list of India's Scheduled Castes as can currently be made. It reveals a highly heterogeneous profile of Scheduled Caste communities, which are spread across the country and which are mainly landless, with little control over resources such as land, forest and water. It also shows the persistence of 'untouchability' in many pockets, and the variable measures of equality that have so far been achieved in the struggle for social upliftment by the Scheduled Castes. It reveals that these castes have been increasingly involved in modern occupations, such as service in government departments wherever traditional industries have declined. As a consequence, a new sense of self-respect is in the air, gradually replacing some of the old myths which sought to legitimize their degradation.
Upliftment of the scheduled castes is not merely a matter of compassion or charity as is commonly assumed but a developmental necessity. Centuries of exploitation and neglect have forced the majority of these hapless people into sub-human existence. They occupy the bottom rung of the social lader. Devoid of education, information and the necessary motivation, information and the necessary motivation, they are not in a postion to take advantage of teh reservation policy and other programmes evolved to improve their situation. Are the need and relevance of development of these exterior castes duly appreciated? Have development programmes of rthe betterment of the dperessed classes been able to achieve their objective? Is there the necessary social, political and administrative will to evolve social, intervention strategies and implement them in letter and spirit? The present work addresses itself to these questions and strives to identify those factors which facilitate or hinder development and change in these weaker sections of society. It examines the socio-cultural background, economic situation, social interactional patterns, development programmes, the magnitude of participation in these development of participation in these development programmes and programme preference of the members of the scheduled castes.
