The anthology, which has been developed using both primary and secondary research, will leave readers with a sense of how government policy and programmes affect the everyday lives of people, as well as the complex and varied forms that exclusion can take, specifically, themes like health, water and sanitation, women and work, communal and ethnic violence, amongst others. In holding up a mirror to our times, this timely volume ends with narratives about two communities that have become the unsung survivors of exclusion in our country: the Devadasis, and the Jarawas of the Andamans.
