Abstract
The present paper attempts to explore Goffman’s interaction approach and his constructs like the ritualized interaction and stigma in particular, reflecting on the potential of these in helping to understand and explain the case of exclusion and discrimination of the stigmatized Dalit students in educational spaces. The paper explores specific aspects of his micro sociology that can be useful for the research around the subject.
