and positive action on rising cases of atrocities against us and the barriers we face in our daily economic and social life. This can only be achieved through sensitising offices of power and authority infusing in them the strong will to make proactive and progressive decisions on behalf of Dalits and along with ensuring bringing about awareness on our rights as decision makers. II. Political Will The economic growth of the minorities is seen as an aggression or assertion by the dominant in the societies.

Safety of the minorities and Dalits and Indegenous need to be ensured if at all economic inclusion is to be fostered. Political will in ensuring rights of minorities should be achieved through enhancing legal standards and legislative mechanisms to prevent violence. In the current situation in markets which tend to further exacerbate the structural discrimination in society, States must bring in an Equal Opportunities Act to protect our rights and introduce affirmative/reservation policies in the growing private sector. Productive resources for dalit and 'minority community must be distributed whereby States should reserve land resources for Dalits / Adivasis. State measures on distribution of land and other productive resources among poor minority households must be implemented as a measure of inclusion. III. Budget allocations and real time expenditures.

For example as dalit population is 16.4% of the total population, 16.4% of total plan budget in the Union (fedral) budget of India is allocated for specific development of Dalits. These allocations are tied
