India is a land of diverse culture and heritage. For many centuries diverse cultures, religions and castes have co-existed together in the country. However, there has been a constant intolerance emanating from this diversity and we have failed to achieve complete harmony in all aspects of our lives. The prevalence of social inequality has created barriers and has denied access to materials, cultural and educational resources to the disadvantaged groups of the society. These groups have been segregated on the basis of language, ethnicity, class, caste, religion etc. This has resulted in a highly entrenched system of social stratification wherein hegemonic domination of the privileged groups has been detrimental to the development and progress of the exploited groups.
