The exercises in this section focus on key concepts discussed throughout the chapter, including the invocation of fundamental rights by marginalized groups, the importance of the 1989 Act, and methods of expressing social issues through poetry and community engagement.
In this section, we engage with various exercises designed to deepen our understanding of marginalization and the constitutional protections available to affected groups. The exercises include reflections on the Fundamental Rights that marginalized communities can invoke, case studies that illustrate how laws such as the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 empower individuals like Rathnam to confront societal injustices, and discussions on the methods marginalized communities employ to express their identities and challenges, notably through poetry.
The importance of understanding these exercises lies not just in the knowledge gained, but in empowering students to recognize the significance of civil rights and social justice in real-world scenarios.

1989 Act: A law aimed at preventing atrocities against marginalized communities.
