About the Book:
Taking a close look at the conceptual underpinning of social inclusion, this book discusses at length the social policy, need for social inclusion, and international as well as Indian experiences of social inclusion, with special focus on the state of Maharashtra. Further it examines the performance, challenges, and policies in four important and inter-related components of social inclusion in India, i.e., empowerment of the weaker sections, performance of flagships programmes, the allocation of resources, provisions for social sector, sustainable development, and human development.
