This paper intends to analyse the migration of a single community namely the Badagas of the Nilgiris for various reasons. Earlier only a few Badagar were migrated to get employment and transfer/promotion in their jobs. Though the Badagas were stated many reasons, the ischolar_main cause was the fall in the price of tea during the late 1990s. Since then these Badagas were slowly spread to the neighbouring districts viz., Coimbatore, Tirupur and Erode. Coimbatore is the adjoining district where they could get easy access for all their needs and also to contact their relations in the native. In this context, this paper tries to focus on the reasons for migration and also to analyse the determinants of migration among the Badagas by selecting two villages in north Coimbatore.Keywords

Many Muslim countries including Pakistan tried to promote the literacy level of their people. Post independent India has been implementing various schemes to promote the literacy level in the country, but still the dropout persists. Particularly among the Muslim children it is increasing by an alarming rate due to their social and cultural phenomenon. With this background a study is undertaken among the Muslim children living in the Nilgiris district to find out their socio-demographic characteristics and analyse the causes for their dropout.Keywords

Education of all children in public schools, together with those with disabilities, continues to be an unanswered issue in many countries around the globe. While education of all students is mandated by law and well thought-out a basic human right in many countries, the current status of execution varies. India, for example, is a prehistoric country that adopted moderately a lot of laws and policies for its citizens with disabilities after the independence from British rule. Today, India legitimately requires the education of all students in schools; however, despite this, millions of students with disabilities prolong to stay behind out of school or be given little or no education. In this context, this paper intends to analyze the status and infrastructure of special schools in Kerala and the factors determining the enrollment of disabled students in these schools.Keywords

India is primarily based on agriculture in which more than half of its population is dependent for their livelihood. Even though the share of agriculture in GDP is decreasing due to industrialization, its development is inevitable. The most important issue that hurdles the development of agriculture is finance. Among the various sources of raising finance for agriculture, institutional finance plays an important role. In this regard, the present study aims to analyze the role of co-operative societies in promoting agricultural development in Sathyamangalam block of Erode District. The land holding pattern, details of loan amount availed, cropping pattern, awareness towards lending pattern of co-operative societies and the major determinants of amount of loan availed are also examined.Keywords

India is a country with varied heritage and culture. Due to advancement in socio-economic structure, standard of living, life style and technology, the tribes had an overall change in all the aspects. The traditional occupation of the tribes being hunting had seen a drastic change due to the introduction of forest policies and the restriction towards hunting. The shift in occupation of tribes is based on their locations and other available opportunities. In this aspect, the present research probes to analyse the major determinants of changes in occupation of the tribes living in Attappady region of Kerala state. Purposive Random Sampling method has been adopted to select the sample respondents. The data have been collected from 67 respondents and analysed with multiple regression analysis. The result showed that gender, education and total debt of the family have significant impact on occupational diversification leading to transformation in the livelihood pattern of the select respondents in the study area.Keywords
