ABSTRACT
Minorities around the world have faced the atrocities of a plethora of issues, sourced from the majoritarian ideology. The Vulnerability shared by the marginalized group is incapsulated by means of studying various minority groups present in Asian Countries. Myanmar, China, India, and Azerbaijan are some countries, used to identify the common Catalysts of an Ethnic Wipe-out. The research paper draws a comparative study among the selected countries which experienced one of the biggest Ethnic Cleansing in the World History. Along with, a study of position of India, a south-Asian developing country, with respect to protection of minorities. The Paper establishes a close association between the historical events and the present-day status quo of the condition of ethnic minorities in Asia. Social Hierarchy, Cultural divisions and Statutory Provisions are elements that have been investigated in order to promulgate the ingredients of Ethnic Cleansing in the countries chosen for the Study.
