Groups can be marginalised Becoz of three reasons:
1) Several groups can be marginalised because of their language.
Their language is different from the majority language. Hence the majority marginalised that group
2) Several groups can be marginalised because of their dressing sense as they think that their old dresses are better than the new ones.
3) Becoz of their thinking style as they lack it and they think in their own way.

People who wanted to change the society were " Social Reformers". Some of the Social Reformers who put an end to the Social evils are as follows :-
Raja Ram Mohan Roy: He was well - versed in English, Sanskrit, person, Greek languages. He had read the scriptures of the Hindus, Muslims and Christians. He founder the reform association known as the Brahmo Samaj in Calcutta, one of the first Indian socio-religious reform organisation. He advocated education of women.
Raja Ram Mohan Roy is well-remembered for his role in abolishing the practice of Sati. Through his writing in Samvad Kaumudi (a bengali journal started by him), he led a campaign against Sati. With the support of lord William Bentick, the Governor General , the practice was stopped in 1829, by law. He also campaigned for rights for women, including the rights for widows to remarry and to hold property. He is also known as the Maker of Modern India.
Dayanand Saraswati: Several reasons have been put forward for the prevalence of child marriage. The poor parents often gave their young daughters of ten or eleven year of age to older men, Many of them became widow at a young age. The parents could not afford to give a dowry. For the poor parent, child marriages were cheaper than adult marriage. Child Marriage, often deprived the girl child of any kind of education. She had to look after the household soon after the marriage.
Dayanand Saraswati laid the foundation of Arya Samaj in 1875. and advocated the ending of child marriage through legislation. The Age of consent Act 1891, which raised the marriageable age for girls to 12 years was passed. In 1929, the child Marriage Restraint Act was passed due to the efforts of Dayanand Saraswati. According to this Act, No man below the age of 18 and woman below the age of 16 could marry.
Jyotiba Phule: Many Social Reformers felt that education was necessary to improve the condition of women. One reformer was Jyotiba Phule, He spent his entire life in the upliftment of women, for the education of girls and abolition of the caste system. In Maharastra, the lead for woman's education was taken by Jyotiba Phule. In 1851, he opened a school for girls from lower classes.
Jyotiba Phule was a well-known figure amoung the ‛low caste’ who worked for the upliftment of the hindu society. He led the movement against the prevailing caste system in India. He revolted against the domination of the Brahmans and fought for the rights of low caste people.

In principle, all citizens of India can access the courts in this country. This implies that every citizen has a right to justice through the courts. The courts play a very significant role in protecting our Fundamental Rights. If any citizen believes that their rights are being violated, then they can approach the court for justice to be done.

Jatin Sarkar was a bank officer. After retirement he came back to his forefather's house. He requested the tenant to vacate the house. But the tenant did not vacate the house. Tenant challenged that if Jatin Sarkar wanted to have his house vacated, he should move to court for justice. He was compelled to live in a rented house. The owner lodged litigation against the tenant. After fighting the case for five years, the owner won the case. The decision was made in his favour by the Trial Court. But the tenant appealed in the High Court against the lower court decision. It again took five years for justice. In the meantime Jatin Sarkar kept on living in the rented house because unless there was judgement, he had no other option. In such a situation we can definitely say, 'Justice delayed is justice denied'.
