Structural Exclusion
The term structural exclusion is the extension of the concept of social exclusion which means exclusion from the prevailing social system and its rights and privileges, typically as a result of poverty or the fact of belonging to a minority social group. The term social exclusion is used to highlight the phenomenon relating to residents of border villages who are deprived of their basic rights of free occupation or other facilities of normal life which the people of non-border areas in Punjab have been enjoyed. The residents of the border villages in Punjab could not access to their agricultural land for farming because of the restriction put up by the governments or security forces in terms of security of the international border. The border is a form of structure and because of the security arrangements of it the residents of the borderlands have been excluded from the different rights.
