Inter-Generational Change among Scheduled Castes People in Bihar (in Reference to Education)

Suheli Mehta

Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the intergenerational change came in the scheduled caste people of Bihar due to educational development. Education is also a serious concern for the government to study and frame some policies for their well-being. For this purpose, 200 sample from rural Nawada e. g. Hisua and Nardiganj block were taken to complete this study. All the respondents were selected through Purposive cum random sampling technique. In this study it was found that first generation of scheduled caste community is almost illiterate or literate only. After implementing the government schemes in schools like-mid-day meal, poshak-yojna and scholarship the enrollment of second generation has come up to middle class (8th class only). Dropout was also seen in the second-generation people. No motivation and economical constraints are the main reason for dropout in schools. Aspiration for taking education was found more in the third generation than second generation people. So, we can say there came educational change after a long time in this community but even not at significant level.
