CHAPTER 2 REVIEW OFLITERATURE
Nichol and Brown(2003) studied that the social enquiry has been challenged in recent
years through increasing income inequality. The widening gap between the rich and poor
contributes to economic segregation among regions and neighbourhoods and has a direct
impact on public service delivery. This article examined the declining mobility, economic
segregation and education to demonstrate the relevance of socio class and socioeconomic
status to field of public administration.
Tiwari and Kumar(2005) reported that there have been significant Changes in the
socio-economic matrix of the country over the past five year, which necessitated modification
and updation of the scale to make it use worthy. A provision for such updation every five year
has been kept in the scale.
