|| Muslims and Marginalisation ||
Muslims are 13.4 percent of India's population.
They are considered to be a marginalised community in India.
They have over the years been deprived of the benefits of socio-economic development.
The government set up a high-level committee in 2005 to examine the social, economic and educational status of the Muslim community.
According to the Report, the average years of schooling for Muslim children between the ages of 7-16 is much lower than that of other Religions.
Muslims wear a burqa, sport a long beard.
These are ways to identify all Muslims because of this, they tend to be identified differently.
This social marginalisation of Muslims has led them to migrate from places where they have lived.
Sometimes, this prejudice leads to hatred and violance.
