The caste system of India, has segregated the Bauris and other scheduled castes from the rest of the society to such an extent that they were denied even the basic human rights. Interestingly, the absence of freedom of occupation, illiteracy, low income, restriction on needs and stigma on menial labor destroyed the economy of the scheduled castes. As a result, scheduled castes remained socially out caste, economically dependent, politically powerless and culturally backward. The central and state government has taken many steps for reservation in education and employment for their economic and cultural upliftment. The present book highlights the components like population composition, sex ratio, fertility, family welfare, morbidity and mortality. Moreover, it also presents their economic activities, occupational pattern, educational standard, source of income etc. This book will be useful to scholars of various disciplines like Economics, Demography, Anthropology and Sociology.
