Abstract

The present paper discusses the educational status of the Budagajangam Community in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Budagajangam Community, considered a scheduled caste in Telangana, were no more stakeholders of the fundamental constitutional rights. The education status of the Budagajangam community in the two states is on the lower side compared to the indices of the other scheduled castes. The researcher obtained primary and secondary data from various sources, including the Census, annual reports of the Ministry of Education under the Government of India, and state-level reports. The Beda (Budga) Jangam community experienced 48.5 percent of illiterates in the two districts of Andhra and Telangana. The Beda (Budga) Jangam community exhibited a low literacy level, with a similarly below-average literacy rate observed among the Scheduled Castes. This paper presents a fundamental notion of how a particular community has been marginalized from the dominant societal structure.
