NCERT Academic Session 2023-2024
Description:
Marginalization is exclusion from society due to factors like race, gender, or socioeconomic status. It leads to inequalities and limited opportunities, requiring dismantling discriminatory structures for social inclusivity.
Adivasis face increasing marginalization due to:
1. Land Displacement: Loss of ancestral lands to development projects causes displacement, leading to loss of livelihoods and cultural heritage.
2. Limited Access: Lack of resources such as education and healthcare, coupled with societal discrimination, hampers their socio-economic growth and participation in mainstream society.
