Scheduled Castes of India: A Statistical Report by C. Venkataiah | States & Districts | 5-Volume Hardcover Set | Old / Used Books

Scheduled Castes of India: A Statistical Report — States and Districts is a five-volume reference set edited by A. Banerjea and C. Venkataiah. It brings together state- and district-level statistical material for readers studying Scheduled Castes in India.

About the Book

The introduction places the report in the context of historical social, educational and economic disadvantage. It discusses the constitutional framework for safeguarding the interests of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, including measures intended to support participation in education, public employment and governance.

It also describes the historical role of the Commissioner for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in examining safeguards and reporting on their implementation, together with the regional offices established to support that work.

This set is suited to researchers, students, academics and reference libraries interested in Indian demography, sociology, social policy and regional studies. Published in 2009, it should be approached as a historical reference rather than a source of current statistics.
