&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Reservations are not the answer to every social and economic problem. More needs to be done to provide safety nets to vulnerable groups.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;About 10 crore to 12 crore Indians lost their jobs in the immediate aftermath of the countrywide lockdown to contain the spread of Covid-19, IndiaSpend reported in April.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But the lockdown has impacted the disadvantaged caste groups with a far greater magnitude than the upper castes, found a new paper investigating if the pandemic is a &amp;ldquo;leveller&amp;rdquo; of social distinctions. It noted that &amp;ldquo;while all caste groups lost jobs in the first month of the lockdown, the job losses for the lowest-ranked castes are greater by a factor of three&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Pre-existing faultlines, structural inequalities based on caste identity reveal themselves yet again in the immediate post-lockdown job losses,&amp;rdquo; Ashwini Deshpande, professor of economics at Ashoka University and co-author of the paper, told IndiaSpend in an interview.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In a paper in March, Deshpande and co-author Rajesh Ramchandran showed that children from socially disadvantaged groups are more likely to become stunted. That incidence of stunting among upper-caste children in India is similar to the national average for the low middle-income countries while stunting among Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes children are around 10 percentage to 15 percentage points higher.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;During the lockdown-induced economic distress, &amp;ldquo;those with precarious daily wage and casual jobs have been the most vulnerable to falling into deep poverty&amp;rdquo;, she said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The 10% reservation for economically weaker sections introduced by the Centre in 2019 &amp;ldquo;marks a major departure from the role of reservations as a policy of compensatory discrimination&amp;rdquo;, said Deshpande, adding that reservations alone &amp;ldquo;are not the answer to every social and economic problem&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Reservations are not the answer to every social and economic problem. More needs to be done to provide safety nets to vulnerable groups.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;About 10 crore to 12 crore Indians lost their jobs in the immediate aftermath of the countrywide lockdown to contain the spread of Covid-19, IndiaSpend reported in April.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But the lockdown has impacted the disadvantaged caste groups with a far greater magnitude than the upper castes, found a new paper investigating if the pandemic is a &amp;ldquo;leveller&amp;rdquo; of social distinctions. It noted that &amp;ldquo;while all caste groups lost jobs in the first month of the lockdown, the job losses for the lowest-ranked castes are greater by a factor of three&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Pre-existing faultlines, structural inequalities based on caste identity reveal themselves yet again in the immediate post-lockdown job losses,&amp;rdquo; Ashwini Deshpande, professor of economics at Ashoka University and co-author of the paper, told IndiaSpend in an interview.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In a paper in March, Deshpande and co-author Rajesh Ramchandran showed that children from socially disadvantaged groups are more likely to become stunted. That incidence of stunting among upper-caste children in India is similar to the national average for the low middle-income countries while stunting among Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes children are around 10 percentage to 15 percentage points higher.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;During the lockdown-induced economic distress, &amp;ldquo;those with precarious daily wage and casual jobs have been the most vulnerable to falling into deep poverty&amp;rdquo;, she said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The 10% reservation for economically weaker sections introduced by the Centre in 2019 &amp;ldquo;marks a major departure from the role of reservations as a policy of compensatory discrimination&amp;rdquo;, said Deshpande, adding that reservations alone &amp;ldquo;are not the answer to every social and economic problem&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;About 10 crore to 12 crore Indians lost their jobs in the immediate aftermath of the countrywide lockdown to contain the spread of Covid-19, IndiaSpend reported in April.&lt;/p&gt;

Job losses among SCs were three times higher than for upper castes: Economist Ashwini Deshpande -Shreehari Paliath

-India Spend/ Scroll.in Reservations are not the answer to every social and economic problem. More needs to be done to provide safety nets to vulnerable groups. About 10 crore to 12 crore Indians lost their jobs in the immediate aftermath of the countrywide lockdown to contain the spread of Covid-19, IndiaSpend reported in April. But the lockdown has impacted the disadvantaged caste groups with a far greater magnitude than the upper castes, found a new paper investigating if the pandemic is a “leveller” of social distinctions. It noted that “while all caste groups lost jobs in the first month of the lockdown, the job losses for the lowest-ranked castes are greater by a factor of three”. “Pre-existing faultlines, structural inequalities based on caste identity reveal themselves yet again in the immediate post-lockdown job losses,” Ashwini Deshpande, professor of economics at Ashoka University and co-author of the paper, told IndiaSpend in an interview. In a paper in March, Deshpande and co-author Rajesh Ramchandran showed that children from socially disadvantaged groups are more likely to become stunted. That incidence of stunting among upper-caste children in India is similar to the national average for the low middle-income countries while stunting among Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes children are around 10 percentage to 15 percentage points higher. During the lockdown-induced economic distress, “those with precarious daily wage and casual jobs have been the most vulnerable to falling into deep poverty”, she said. The 10% reservation for economically weaker sections introduced by the Centre in 2019 “marks a major departure from the role of reservations as a policy of compensatory discrimination”, said Deshpande, adding that reservations alone “are not the answer to every social and economic problem”.
