Data-Bank

Databank Database research in social sciences is supposed to be more reliable. Paucity of data on the issues relating to Indian Muslims is the main constraint in proper understanding of the issues and in analyzing the problems of the community. Realizing this dire need, the Institute established a Data Bank in 1996 to collect information specially on Muslims and other minorities of the country. We plan to collect data on socio- economic and educational condition of the minorities. The main areas taken up for the purpose have been population change, Employment, Education and Health. We have sufficient data on the status of minorities in these areas. With the support of Internet, the infrastructure of the Data Bank has been expanded and augmented. Now, the new titles of the above mentioned areas are: Health & Population Data, Economic & Employment Data, Vocational & Educational Data.
