Corporate sector and job opportunity for marginalized sections - University News - 59(44), Nov, 2021: p.55-57

The current project is an empirical effort to know the corporate sector’s contribution to increasing employment opportunities through technical education for marginalized sections. In India, children, women, aged, differentlyabled, scheduled caste, and tribes have been considered as marginalized sections of the society. The corporation introduced many research and development activities under CSR activities for the benefit of these categories. Companies Act 2013 mandates the corporate investment in community development, exclusively corporate investing in the area where companies operate their business. Before the Companies Act, many corporates have contributed a lot to community development activities as a philanthropic approach. – Reproduced
