Description
India is a unique country. She stratifies her population by the ascribed status. The birth determines individual’s position and privileges. Dalits are one of the most vulnerable groups in India. The sufferings have long history. The social evils targeting life and property of dalits are ever increasing. The human rights violations are obvious against this so called marginalized group. The sufferings are double if the dalit is woman. The protective discrimination and affirmative action of government not yet produce the desired level change in the life of dalits. The modern technology does not bring change in the social attitude and prejudiced mind of common populace. In the modern India the untold suffering of dalits still persists. In this context, the books shed a spot light on various issues of dalits. Moreover, the authors of the respective paper are responsible, not the editor, for the views, data, contents which are expressed in this book.
