ABSTRACT

Social infrastructure is referred to school, health care, water supply, housing, and social security, while physical infrastructure to services such as road, transportation, irrigation, bus services, electricity, post and communication. Providing social infrastructure is necessary to meet the basic minimum requirement of the people especially for ensuring higher levels of social justice. Educational and health facilities are located away from Muslim localities and due to discrimination, economic inability, lack of motivation etc. Doctors have observed that Muslims, particularly Muslim women, are more affected from tuberculosis than other communities. Housing condition of Muslim community is not satisfactory and it is bad compared to other Sachar Committee Reports. India Islamic Cultural Centre (IICC) situated on Lodhi Road in New Delhi, has become a symbol of Indian Muslims. Farsighted Muslim leaders had got the land of IICC allotted by Mrs. Indira Gandhi in 1984.
