Education is very essential for the development of our society. It is also the best medium for the upliftment of those people who are neglected by the society. “The more educated the people living in that country, the greater the development in their economy.” So making each and everyone educated especially the weaker sections of the society like the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes is the most essential criteria for making the country more developed. In the year 1961, about 90 percent of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes were illiterate. The literacy rate of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes increased to 66.1 percent and 59 percent as per the 2011 census. Our Indian constitution provides us with many provisions related to education through which the government of India is obligated to ensure the proper education of all. Out of all these provisions article 15 and article 46 of the Indian constitution mainly deals with the education of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes. The government took many initiatives for the betterment of the people belonging to the weaker sections of the society to ensure that each and everyone get education inspite of their poor financial conditions. Earlier the students used to face many problems in various educational institutions, but now the scenario has changed and they are also given equal opportunities in the field of education. There is also an increase in the employment sector. Therefore, by the introduction of the modern education system the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes are benefited a lot and their upliftment had eventually helped in the developmental process of our country.
