Socio-Legal Study of Cultural and Educational Rights of the Minorities

The book is a Socio-Legal post-audit of cultural and educational rights of the minorities in India. It analyses the judicial response to the whole issue keeping in view the urges and aspirations of the minorities and the exigencies of national integration. It demonstrates that it is no mean task to reconcile the competing demands of maintaining excellence in education and at the same time protecting the interests of the minorities. The study supplements the legal angle by the empirical data obtained through extensive field study using standard sociological research methodology. Apart from being a pioneering work of sociological perspective on a crucial legal problem the book is a valuable and positive contribution to socio-legal scholarship and will no doubt interest the general public as well as the members of legal fraternity.
