Introduction The constitution of India grants and guarantees to us certain fundamental rights which include the right to equality. Article 14 of the Indian constitution states that no person shall be denied equality or equal protection before the law. It basically implies that everyone should be treated alike and no one must be discriminated against. It ensures that in similar situations, people are treated equally. Discrimination shouldn’t be on the basis of religion, race, caste, sex, place of birth, etc. This is stated in Article 15 of the constitution. However this does not outlaw the creation of special provisions for women and children. The state has the liberty to make special provisions for socially backward classes and for the educationally backward classes. This includes the SC and STs. When it comes to equal opportunities in the matter of employment, article 16 says that there cannot be any discrimination based on …show more content…
A pro-rata reservation of 22.5% (SC 15% and ST 7.5%) has been made for them in educational institutions which come under the administrative control of the Ministry of Human Resource Development and other Central Ministries. Similar reservations, directly proportional to their population, have also been provided by the State Governments and Union Territory Administrations. The schedules caste and the schedule tribes also do not have to worry about their age being appropriate for an examination or for other institutions as the government is lenient when it comes to their age, i.e., the upper limit age restrictions which are present for other citizens are more lenient when it comes to them. It is also easier for them to get into universities as they have been given a concession of a lower cut-off qualifying mark as compared to the qualifying mark for others. Apart from SC and SC candidates, seats are reserved for other backward communities
In response to the criticism offered by me, Coates is likely treat it as sort of false patriotism and as being not entirely in conjunction with reality. That, racism, and discrimination based on it thereof, is an undeniable reality, even in today’s society, seen in many facets of the country, whether explicit or disguised under policies and false consciousness. Furthermore, the fact that the discrimination is based on a system of caste and not class, that is, one which someone is born into and cannot change; defeats the purpose of providing opportunity, that each individual is, or at least should be entitled to as citizens, and hence would be construed as a violation of basic rights. Even still, the harms caused by racism are prevalent even
The educational system in America contains numerous racial disparities that affects the very core of the children who is suppose to benefit from education. This disparity comes in many forms in primary schools, a teacher’s attitude being one of them (Epps, 1995). A teacher’s attitude in a classroom consisting of a racially diverse children is a large contributing factor to the academic success of their students, more specifically, the minority African American students. It is a given that all schools should employ qualified teacher who are passionate about their students and the quality of education they provide to these students. Unfortunately, that is not the case for many urban schools that house a large proportion of African American students

Joseph at al (2016) Synopsis: The article by Qian et al (2016) defines the necessity of identifying the early development of racial biases that exist before the age of 6 in a study done on Chinese and African students in localized preschools.

Discrimination amongst our own people, is something very difficult to understand. We have racial discrimination between the upper castes and the so called ‘lower castes’, especially Dalits. The scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and other backward classes are still being discriminated and boycott. An Example:-
Discrimination happens everywhere all the time it happens in schools, the work force and in works of literature. One book in particular is “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley, where John, the main character, is trapped between two worlds neither of which he can fit in with. Discrimination has always and will always be an issue based on the ways of thinking people can use while interacting with others. “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley features two distinct worlds, one that is remote and practices traditional values (such as one man and one woman), while the other is scientifically advanced and believes that everyone belongs to everyone. The two communities only occasionally interact when the people from the new world go to the reservation
From history of hundreds of decades, we have witnessed the great progress made by human, in technology and in society. But injustice always exists everywhere in this world. Injustice and unfair treatment could not be erased from the world easily. Just like the situation described by John Steinbeck, the immigrants faced injustice. But there are too many injustices that even worse in the world.
When I was in third grade I attended a Catholic school and was taught by a nun. Sister Helen felt that young ladies were coddled and boys made an example of simply because of their exuberant behaviors. Not only were boys allowed more freedoms within her classroom (more chances to move around, more time at recess), grades were also affected. Regardless of classwork or participation, all female students were given a grade of C while all male students were given an A. Though not quite as obvious, my daughter is currently battling gender bias within her college. As a student of science who has attended specialized science, technology, engineering, and math programs since middle school, my daughter (who graduates this May) has many years of technical
thesis: 1) proper education can inspire a positive attitude to racism 2) education helps racial students to move from intolerance to acceptance and understanding of cultural difference 3) education provides cognitive skills, which increases people’s captivity people’s capacity to detect prejudice and to reject it. Is Education the Best Inversion Against Racism? The ex Prime minister of Britain Tony Blair has always insisted the importance of education in preventing racism. According to Tony Blair some people are born to be bad, you can’t stop people from being bad (Blair, T. Education backs Lessons Against racism 1999.) proper education can help get rid of prejudice and changes in the national curriculum of the British educative system whereby
“Racism distorts our sense of danger and safety. We are taught to live in fear of people of color. We are exploited economically by the upper class and unable to fight or even see this exploitation because we are taught to scapegoat people of color (Kivel, P).” This quote from the article, The Cost of Racism to White People, barely digs at one of the reasons why racism still occurs in today’s world. There are many motives out there for why racism still occurs.
Discrimination of Muslims in France On a November day in France there was a soccer game between France and Germany in the Stade De France. While the match was going on, an impacting explosion sound was heard, and it was making all the crowd get a beeping sound on their ears. All players ran to the locker rooms to protect themselves as the crowd was running down to the field. The stadium was full of smoke, screams of scared people, and the sound of bullets being shot. When Paris police arrived they cleared the stadium but many people were kidnapped and were killed one by one.
Discrimination is an action or a decision that treats a man or a social affair gravely for reasons, for instance, their race, age or debilitate. It includes so many things like race/ethnicity, age, color, region, sex, employment and culture. Language is one of the discrimination types which I am going to describe. It is very important part of every culture, religion or country. It is a way of communication through which we all share our feelings to each other.
It is important for teachers to create an environment that promotes fairness in order for students to succeed. Equality and equity are both needed to do this. Equality in a class means every student has the same opportunity to succeed. Making accommodations for students is called equity. This is needed in a class to ensure an equal opportunity to succeed is possible for every student.
The reason why the committee has chosen the issue to be drawn attention is because there still exists remaining discrimination throughout the world, even there are some laws
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once had a dream in which he calls for an end to racism in the U.S. and calls for civil and economic rights. So much has changed since then, but there are still problems that are in the process of being solved. When a person treats a group differently because of that group 's religion, it 's unfair. For a character who has different beliefs, it should not address them the right to criticize another individual. Nowadays, humans judge other humans by the way there features stand out.
Hon’ble Judge of the Supreme Court of India Gajendra Gadker J1. , while delivering a judgment pointed out that “the concept of social justice is an essential postulate of the rule of law and it gives special significance to the idea of a welfare state”. The Constitution enshrines the concept of Social Justice as one of the objects of state policy and the principles enunciated in “Directive Principles of State Policy” are fundamental in the governance of the country and it shall be the duty of the State to apply these principles in making special laws for achieving the goals of Social Justice and an egalitarian society and thus “Reservations” have become major part of the Constitution and its Policy and has become National Policy also since enactment of the Constitution for the last 55 years. But the recent Judgment of the Supreme court pertaining to
