Education for Dalit

Meer over het boek

The book explores the enduring impact of the caste system on the education of Dalits in India, highlighting the historical and systemic barriers that have led to low literacy and enrollment rates. It examines how the social and economic oppression of Dalits, also known as scheduled castes or untouchables, has persisted since the 1850s, exacerbated by British colonial rule. The narrative emphasizes the challenges faced by the Indian government in addressing these inequalities and the ongoing struggle for equitable access to education for marginalized communities.
