All societies in the world are stratified and Indian society is no exception to this. Like all societies, even Indian society has its own divisions with their lowly that is the scheduled castes (SCs) or dalits who are above 18 per cent of the total population. They have always remained below ‘pollution line and poverty line’ along with awful forms of untouchability against not an individual member of a group, but whole community of SC. They have been suffering from discrimination and facing exploitation even today from the upper-caste Hindus in socio-cultural, civic, economic and political spheres. So here, it becomes important to understand the social construction of the Indian society which is based on graded inequality, marginalisation and social exclusion. An ethnographic account is given to understand the social exclusion of SCin rural Maharashtra of India.

This paper examines social exclusion among Muslims in Aligarh Lock Industry. Social exclusion has been defined as a process by which Muslims are deprived or denied access to satisfy their basic needs. It is also extended to education, employment, and health. Eighty per cent of Muslims in Aligarh are engaged in the lock industry. Majority of them are ajlaf. However, due to globalization, the lock industry is undergoing change. Products based on new technology, which is capital-intensive in an organized sector (as opposed to labour-intensive in an unorganized sector) are flooded with products at very low cost than the traditional Aligarh products. Consequently, the lock industry workers are either getting low wages against their work or losing jobs due to stiff competition in the market. This kind of market regulation is adversely affecting the marginalized section of the society. The lock industry of Aligarh is under tremendous threat from the Chinese locks. Artisans and small-scale entrepreneurs especially Muslims are not in a position to compete in the competitive market. The present state of the Muslim artisans and small-scale industry appear to be bleak and their future is uncertain. Many have discontinued sending their children to schools. On the contrary, they have started sending their children to work in the lock industry due to impoverishment and poverty. If adequate measures are not taken by the government to protect the interests of the Muslim Lock workers especially in the unorganized Lock Industry, thousands of skilled and semi-skilled workers and small entrepreneurs who are ajlafs will be reduced to the level of casual workers.

The roots of practicing orthodox tradition of widowhood prescribed by ancient Indian religion is remote and deep rooted in the psychology of a large number of Indian people and even after 65 years of independence people are unable to denounce this inhuman practice. People belonging to rural areas, tribal community and so on observe this fatal phenomenon, which is related with female gender and consider the sufferer deprived from all rights to live or enjoy life further and thought of as dead persons. A huge number of such victims still ditched under the shadow of death and gloominess, discarded by their own kith and kin and lawfully separated from their own possessed affluence. According to the religious doctrine, it is pronounced that widows are destined to suffer according to their Karma (deeds) of previous birth, with this belief any scope of sympathy for widows gets diminished and they left abandoned for pre-destined torment. This catastrophic and heartrending state of Indian widows is discussed here elaborately and analytically, which is also throwing light on prejudice treatment particularly with women. Evidences still prevail in contemporary religio-social structure of India, which are the basis of narration.

Empowerment is comprehensive and multi-dimensional. It has cognitive, economic, social, and political dimensions. Economic empowerment is to make women take economic decisions and act on them. Women are the nucleus of a family and responsible for change, transformation and mobilisation. Acknowledging this fact and also women's individuality, government make interventions for their economic empowerment. Khadi and Village Industries (KVI) is a similar intervention for economic empowerment of marginalised women and other groups. It is an amalgamation of Gandhian philosophy of self-reliance and sustainability. It is significant to study KVI intervention as it is the oldest movement of mass-mobilisation and recognition of marginalised women. It intends to acknowledge women's capacity of balance and contribution to their family economy.The purpose of this study was to analyse the role of KVI intervention in the economic empowerment of rural women. The objectives of the study were to explore the demographic profile of women working with KVI and to measure the economic empowerment of women through KVI interventions. The study locale was Aligarh. A sample of 120 participants was selected randomly. The data was collected through semistructured interview scheduled under the guidelines provided by the International Centre for Research on Women (Golla, Malhotra, Nanda, & Mehra, 2011) (ICRW, 2011). As per ICRW there are three key indicators of economic empowerment (Reach and Process Indicators; Economic Advancement Indicators; and Agency or Power Indicators). For the purpose of the study, power indicator was selected. Tabulation and representation of data were done through measures of central tendency. Data was analysed through a qualitative approach. Due to intervention there was less gender segregation of work, more equity of domestic loads and contribution of other members in household work. Hence, along with providing avenues for income generation KVI is also empowering marginalised rural women.

Juhi Naseem
The present paper explains the validity of unilateral talaq in the SAARC (South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation) countries. The first portion of it deals with the provisions of talaq laid down in the Holy Quran. Talaq-us-Sunnat is the most approved form whereas; Talaq-ul-Biddat leaves no room for revocation of divorce during the pleasurable life of matrimony. A comparative case study which has been decided by different courts in (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bhutan) has been undertaken to evaluate this issue. I have discussed here that the countries of Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives and Sri Lanka have banned the use of unilateral talaq; however, this harsh and violent practice is still prevalent in India, Afghanistan as well as in Nepal and Bhutan. Unilateral talaq which is also called triple talaq has been critically analysed in the background of Islamic law, Indian Constitution and provisions of various SAARC countries. Many scholars have suggested reforms to bring this law into conformity with the true spirit of Holy Quran and sayings of Prophet (P.B.U.H.) by treating both spouses on equal footing in the society. Reconciliation or reunification, which is an essence of Islamic form of divorce, is only possible in Talaq-us-Sunnat not in case of declaring Talaq-ul-Biddat. In this context, I have clearly mentioned the valid reasons why this barbaric, harsh and totally absurd practice should be abolished. The most important stands among them are that it is against the verses of Holy Quran and Hadith because unilateral divorce originated in the period of Umayyad dynasty, and so it is unjust and inhumane as it encourages exploitation of women as well as it is against the provisions of the Indian Constitution.
