About the Book

Dalit Empowerment addresses four interrelated issues, focusing on the marginalization and exclusion of Dalit and Indigenous communities within Indian society. This book builds the concept of social exclusion, elaborating on its meaning and implications, particularly in the context of caste, untouchability, and race-based exclusion. Through a comprehensive discussion, the book highlights the disadvantaged position of Dalits and tribals while analyzing the inequalities between inter-social groups during the process of human development.

In addition, the book examines the high levels of deprivation faced by these marginalized groups in terms of access to resources, employment, education, and essential social needs. It explores the structural and systemic factors contributing to these disparities. Furthermore, the book brings to light the enduring nature of inequalities in economic, civic, and political domains, highlighting how these disparities perpetuate discrimination and exclusion.

To enhance readers' understanding, the issues are explained in simple language, enriched with relevant and updated data, case studies, and examples of violations related to civil, social, economic, and political rights. The book provides crucial insights into the persistent challenges and the road to Dalit empowerment in contemporary Indian society.
