About the Book:
This book thoroughly explores the so-called developmental goals of Social Justice and Empowerment in the state of Karnataka, focusing on the various social groups such as SC/STs, BCs, women and children, minorities, persons with disabilities, senior citizens and transgender. The book compares Karnataka with other states in this regard as also the global standards to highlight disparities and opportunities for improvement. The book also identifies key challenges that these groups face in the society and economy. As a follow-up, the author proposes a vision for 2025 with practical goals for bettering the socio-economic conditions of the weaker sections.
