This sort of discrimination specially affects the organized groups such as poor, women , children, tribals , dalit and other minorities , , moreover the figure related to various social indicators for rural areas are alarming.

The rural sex ratio in Maharashtra has declined from 960 in 2001 to 948 in 2011(census). The figure above show that inspite of various acts and schemes , specially for women and girl children , the positive Impact is still not seen at the grassroot, in vidarbha, the average rural sex ratio is 953.18.
There is a lack of awareness amongst the people regarding the various schemes and policies applicable to them for their benefits, Also, the implementers of the schemes fail in the proper Implementation due to their ignorance or their lack of willingness or lethargy o work.
It is observe that the child labour is rampant in vidarbha region inspite of various strigent act against child labour being in place. A large number of children is out of school , either dropout or have been to school at all . Much need to be done for the betterment and welfare of these children.

3 POLICY ADVOCY AND CAMPAIGNS TOWARDS RESPONSIVE GOVERNANCE

Intervention under Responsive governance towards Human Rights are undertaken with the following principles in mind.

India is a welfare state and Government of India is respos]nsible for the care and well being of its citizen. India being a democratic state , the chosen representatives are accountable and answerable to the people they serve.
It seems that Government make effort to come out with schemes and policies for the benefit of its people, the implementation of these schemes and services fails to help deprived and poor section of the population.
At the grass root level, It is seen that people are not aware of the basic rights and amenities applicable to them. Therefore , they are not in a position to demand that these services be made accessible and available. Thus it is seen that there is a major Lack of awareness and information amongst the masses.
Inorder to take the voices of the grass root to the government official ,it is essential that people come together collectively and raise the issue and concern so that their problems are duly noted and acted upon. Therefore mass mobilization activities are must to reach out the govt, officials.
The concept of decentralization has been applied in our country. However it is seen that the power still exist does not completely lie at the district and village level. It is essential that the people participation in the political process for their own benefits.
