520 _aDiscrimination along lines of caste, religion, gender, region, language, etc. is a reality in India today as it has been for most of its history. The fault lines in the approach to understanding wage disparity are exposed in its once-too-often overlooking of the sociopolitical realities of their subjects. The paper aims to bring out the wage discrimination in Indian labour market in both rural and urban areas belonging to different occupational activities using the simple ordinary least square regression analysis and Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition method to show that the wage disparity among different social groups can be attributed to discrimination. – Reproduced
