Now a days we all Dalits are expecting a lot from the Durban Conference on Racism

 

In this context what we should do…

 

Send emails to Officials and Websites regarding the Durban Conference against Racism.

 

Stage demonstrations before offices, embassies, high commissions etc.

 

Send letters to the Editors, different Newspapers

 

Brief report on Parliamentarians' meetings, NGOs, Youth Groups etc.

 

Encouragement for meeting by Dalits (or like minded) in India and abroad wherever Dalits live

 

Brief on SC/ST Discriminations, Atrocities, Oppressions and Sufferings with data and bibliographies Plan of action

 

Demand to hold International Conference on Caste Discrimination

 

And What we are doing…

 

Criticizing and blaming the Govt. (very busy in criticizing so that we don't get time do any thing concrete for the Dalit agenda like durban Conference)

 

Everybody (Dalit) wants to go to Durban without proper preparations

 

Looking for sponsors, for the Trip (to Durban), free tickets, free accommodation, concessional boarding etc.
