Description

In India the policy of exclusion revolves around the social institutions, which

is based on their identities for instance caste, religion, gender, which isolate, separate

and exclude them (Thorat & Kumar, 2010). The social-economic structure of the

society maintains this tradition of discrimination and exclusion. Therefore, thus,

education can also not be seen at vacuum (Barten, 1999).Education is also

manifestation of great Indian values of equity and cohesion. Education has the

potential to play a key role in combating inequalities, exclusion and to lay the

groundwork for a more equitable and inclusive society. The challenges are to ensure

that educational systems are not only efficient but also inclusive. Inclusive means in

terms of equal opportunities to access quality education and individual identity with

their diverse backgrounds. Education system without appropriate measures to deal

with this challenge can reinforce social exclusion. The question arises in front of us,

that what kind of educational measures process of

exclusion ? Due to the various steps taken at the policy level, today education is

accessible to all, but can we say that they are accepted with their variegated identities,

to which they belong? Are they socially included in education system? Are there any

efforts made to accept their groups with their identities? In the proposed research,

Education Policies would be studied in this content.
