Rani Ratna Prabha and D. Srinivas. India is a country made up of people from many cultural backgrounds and religious groups who practise a variety of understandings and ways of life. India s inhabitants have never been homogeneous based on caste, class, religion, area, ethnicity, or linguistic ties. Debates and narratives regarding the everyday lives of ethnic, religious, linguistic and cultural minorities are misinterpreted in encounters and understanding in public space. Political interventions impact problems and contentious politics in India exacerbate minority problems. How two separate minority groups are discriminated against and oppressed in society are vastly different. The only thing they have in common is that they are treated differently and less than the rest of the population. This book examines how India s minorities become victims of marginalisation and exclusion from the larger political and social structure. The book focuses on understanding the shifting paradigm in academic understanding of a few minority populations that have been disregarded. Further, sexual minorities (such as LGBTQ), women of colour (within the same race), and immigrant or refugee groups are examples of groups that deserve to be examined in a shared forum. Anyone interested in reading about minorities in India will find food for thought in the book as there is a substantial contribution in forms and perspectives throughout this anthology.…
