THE DALIT POLITICS

ARVIND K.PANDEY

(Remembring Ambedkar on his birthday )

The recent outbreak of Dalit outrage raises doubt over the intentions of Dalit leaders ,who have jeopardized their progress by chasing half-hearted meausers meant to provide them better lifestyle . It's a harsh truth that Dalits have become pawn in the great game played between the self-custodians of the interests of lower echelons of society . Had the caretakers of Ambedkar's legacy ben really interested in giving Scheduled Castes their due ,the untouchables would have atained a distinct voice in mainstream affairs . It's really tragic that humiliation and servitude still remain the prize possession of this realm of people . The champions of their rights have done nothing substantial other vthan using them as ladder to scale the heights of power . This explains why huge gap exists between the status of Mayawati and her followers .There is urgent need to develop a better mindset within this section of humanity .

Dalits require seprate settlement away from barbaric hindus.time has come world leaders should support the 175 millions dalits who are living in hindus country with hindu god and godeses with no human rights.it is better for world communities to arm these poor dalits so they can live peacefully away from barbaric hindus.

Dear Kureela ,

It's true that Dalits have suffered humiliation at the hands of uppercaste but that not enough to term Hindus " barbaric " . Same Hindu community has produced reformers like Gandhi and Ambedakar who did brilliant work for their progress . Any demand for separate homeland is both anti-national and unjustified . Already we have taken many steps to bring them in mainstream , something which began In Lord's Rama age when characters like Nishad and Shabari were honoured by the Lord . To play separatist card in their name would only weaken the country , which likes of Mayawati , Lalu and VP Singh are already doing with their strange politics of hatred .

Yours,
Arvind K.Pandey
