In the post independent era, the constitution of India provided certain protections and safeguards to this section of the society. Some degree of mobility has been noticed in the last half century. But social and economic conditions of this section of Indian society have not changed significantly. Moreover, all sub castes of the Scheduled Castes have not been equally benefited. Economic disparity has increased substantially within the Scheduled Castes. Under such circumstances, the present study tries to examine exclusion within selected Scheduled Castes in Bihar. It also tries to explore the reasons for the exclusion within excluded. Copyright@ International Science Community Association
