520 _aThe marginalised groups in rural areas opt to migrate to urban centres to elude the inherent social hierarchies. It is hoped that the caste- and religion-based segregations will dilute with urbanisation, making way for upward mobility. The findings of the present study indicate that significant disparity persists in urban India, with migrant households and marginalised groups consistently experiencing a lower quality of life. However, the triple interaction of migrant status, social background, and education helps in reversing some of the disparity, as higher education benefits the marginalised sections more than the non-marginalised. The findings suggest a need for more inclusive policies that address and enhance the housing and educational outcomes of marginalised populations. –Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/special-articles/migration-social-identity-and-education.html
