About the Book: Towards Social Justice
Towards Social Justice brings together papers from various perspectives of the
Humanities and Social Sciences on different issues related to the impact of
positive discrimination on marginalised communities with special reference to
Scheduled Caste-groups in India. This book contains some of the articles
presented at a national seminar organised by the ICSSR, North Eastern Regional
Centre and tries to address the question of how the well-being of the Scheduled
Caste population can be promoted, with emphasis on the North-Eastern region to
enable them to live a dignified life. Has the policy of positive discrimination
worked? Do the states implement the reservation policy
