who are definitely a missing poor community because

lowest category of the caste system of the Hindus of
the Indian subcontinent. The objectives of the study
is to investigate the socio-economic condition of the
'Harijons' with in-depth analyses of their levels of
deprivation and of the types and coverage of government
or non-government development initiatives, if any, to
develop their socio-economic condition. This study will
also collect information on available research activities
conducted on this marginal minority groups. This study
