However, barriers to educational access and success persist, shaped by socio-economic, cultural, and infrastructural challenges. This article critically analyzes the various obstacles that SC and ST students face in accessing quality education and the efforts to overcome them. By examining policy interventions, institutional frameworks, and socio-cultural contexts, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the educational landscape for SC and ST students. The article also highlights the role of affirmative action, government schemes, and grassroots initiatives in improving access to education, while addressing the ongoing gaps in educational equity. Education is a fundamental right that can unlock the potential of individuals and communities, and for SC and ST students, it holds the promise of breaking the chains of historical marginalization. However, overcoming the barriers to education for these students requires sustained efforts at multiple levels: from government policies and grassroots initiatives to community involvement and teacher training. Only through a holistic and inclusive approach can we ensure that SC and ST students have equal access to quality education, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to society and realize their full potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Barriers, education, government policy, affirmative action etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Page No: <\/strong>137-140<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/137-140.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Goutam Jana &amp; Dr. Anil Kumar Yadav DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03020019 Abstract: The educational system in India has made significant strides toward increasing access for marginalized groups, particularly Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST) students.
