Rural and Urban Inequality in Access to Education among Scheduled Castes in Tamil Nadu

Abstract

A. Ranjith Kumar*

Even though India has gained independence, the Scheduled Castes have been denied even the most basic rights from the historical context and contemporary reality. The Constitutional provisions and welfare policies support the advancement of the SC people to promote their development. In spite of many attempts by governments, the benefits of welfare policies and developmental policy are being used by urban SCs population. The fruits of welfare policies and developmental policy are not equally distributed among rural and urban SCs population in Tamil Nadu. The study attempts to make a brief analysis in the following manner; why are the benefits of welfare policies not reaching rural SCs? Why are rural SC people socially and economically at the bottom level to urban areas?
