It contributes not only for the development of human resources and efficacy. The main reason for this study, One is educational attainment among Schedule Caste and Schedule Tribes in comparatively lower than the general population. The wide gap in educational attainment between the SCs/ STs and the rest of the population is due to the long history of their socio economics explosion and low social and physical and some local factors.
