Answer 1

Answer:

In India the women, children, scheduled castes and scheduled tribes, persons with disabilities, migrants and aged are regarded as marginalised or vulnerable groups. These people are socially, economically, politically and legally ignored and excluded in Indian society.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. Minority, a culturally, ethnically, or racially distinct group that coexists with but is subordinate to a more dominant group. As the term is used in the social sciences, this subordinacy is the chief defining characteristic of a minority group. As such, minority status does not necessarily correlate to population.
2. What are the reasons why a community is marginalized, and how does it affect the community? Economic, social, cultural and political factors work together to make certain groups in society feel marginalised.
3. Thus the government allows people to maintain cultural differences in order to have peace and harmony in the country. Secularism is practised in India, we allow others to practice, profess and preach their religion. Minorities are given reservations. ... There are 1632 languages in India
4. It is so because this right gives a citizen the right to approach a High Court or the Supreme Court to get any of the fundamental rights restored in case of their violation. The Supreme Court and the High Courts can issue orders and give directives to the government for the enforcement of rights.
