This is Dalitindia

 

Dalitindia is a significant part of the big ancient Nation, which is India.  It is 260 plus million of India's more than One Billion.  Dalitindia is the Working India, Productive India, Creative India, Constructive India, and mostly honest simple sincere poor India.  It is a big and important India.  Yes, it is big in number and size.  But it remains small in importance and power.  It therefore lags far behind the rest of India without any growth.  Hence dalitindia is still small, in spite of all round Developments that are taking place elsewhere in India.  For, dalitindia is  the Broken India, Discriminated India, Exploited India, Marginalized India, Neglected India, Oppressed India, and always the Vanquished and Victimized India.

 

Dalitindia lives in villages, industrial areas, in slums and exclusive areas of small towns to big metropolis.  Dalitindia is large poor but lives happily and vibrantly.  It is full of songs dance drama.  There is no shortage of melodrama.  But at the same time it is frequently visited by sickness poverty and misery.  And it is haunted by shortages deprivals and discriminations.  The Children of Dalitindia are also not spared.  The Children of dalitindia are denied Education, and are subjected to Child Labour.  Yes, Child Labour is rampant in dalitindia.  Dalitindia is denied Employment, Wages and Dignity.  Dalitindia is neglected India, hidden India, submerged India, unseen India, unstudied India, unreported India, undocumented India, really not studied India and is the forgotten India. 

 

India is a Nation of Injustices and Exploitation.  That is why there is No Real Development and Progress or Growth in India, and the Nation remains Backward!  The basic feature of India is Caste.  And every small and big Indian Village, Town and City is built with the bricks of Castes, each encased in Isolation.  Because the interfaces between the Bricks are always Isolation, there could never be any Bondage between the Bricks.  That is why India as a Nation had not so far built up a Society.  In fact India is a Nation in the making!  If India becomes really a Nation, it will be meaningful, strong and powerful.  The fear sadly now is that India may never become really a Nation, or ever become a Democracy.  Even those who do not accept these, and say that there had always been an Indian Society, agree that the Indian Society is not united, not integrated and is not built strongly.  Even the slightest push brings it down.  That is the reason why India is unable to sustain any Development or Progress for long!  Indian Society succumbs silently when challenged or even just visited by any outside forces, or crumbles quickly into a rubble under the weight of any change or modernization.  For, each Brick of Caste that goes to form the Indian Communities anywhere in the Country always stands out in Isolation.  All around is the same reality.  It will be so, perhaps for a longtime.  One need not be surprised if it remains so forever!  After all, India had for long lived through its history like this without any unity, bondage, integration, development, growth, progress, strength and reinforcement for more than three and half millenniums of caste based denials, discriminations, exploitations, marginalisations and oppressions.  Unless the Indian Society is re-laid with Bricks of Compassion and Cemented together with bonds of Love, no Indian Nation could ever be really built!  Therefore, there is a need to replace the Castes being used at present by the Society as the Bricks to Build India, and also discard the continuing Isolation between the Castes.  Isolation can never bind any brick with other.  Hence there can be no real and lasting wall.  With out that there could never be a real home or building or Hall of Progress and Tower of Fame!  Hence Caste has to cast out!  And the Caste has to be substituted by Compassion, and Isolation by Love, to be the New Bricks and Cement, to evolve an integrated united and homogenous new Indian Society, and build a new free progressive and vibrant Indian Nation. 

 

Caste is peculiar to India.  It is an unique characteristic of the Indian Society.  It is the Evil of India and Indians.  Caste only spreads injustices, hatred exploitation discrimination and denials all around.  It spares none.  Even the most educated are not free from Caste Venom.  That is why everything and everyone in India - right from the villager and the grocer at the street corner to the teacher in the neighborhood school or the Professors and Vice Chancellors in the distant Colleges and Universities, and the Peons to Senior Officials top Bureaucrats, Doctors Engineers Scientists and senior Managers, as well as the Political Parties to the Govts - is afflicted by this Evil of Caste and its Venom.  It does not spare anything or anyone.  And, it could not leave any one in any Indian Community in any part of the World, Free! 

 

Caste is an Evil that colours almost permanently the vision of every individual in the Indian Society, towards others who does not belong to the same caste, even if that person does not belong to any caste at all.  Caste thus colours the way an Indian looks at anything or any other person.  The Indians therefore all have a jaundiced vision.  They see everything and do all things with Castes in their mind!  The Venom of Caste influences the thinking actions and behavior of the Indians towards another fellow Indian, even when living in any distant part of the World, away from the shores of the Country! 

 

Caste is Discriminating.  Yes Caste is totally Discriminating.  There is nothing to be surprised about it.  For, Caste was evolved to separate others.  And the willy Aryan adopted it to Segregate Discriminate and Exploit others.  Caste either benefits or discriminates!  It is never neutral!  The day Caste could become Neutral, or rendered so, that day it would collapse!  Caste benefits the brahmins most, and differentially or in an exponentially sliding scale is advantageous in many ways to other dominant caste hindus.  Caste is of some use to certain extent even to the other small neglected forgotten marginalized caste hindus.  Caste had infected even the outcastes, or Avarnas, or the Colourless and hence Casteless People!  That is why the Caste survives and had survived history, challenges, direct attacks, invasions, foreign rules, reason, logic and truth.  That too, in spite of the dangers flowing from it!  And all Benefits from Caste flow from Discriminations based on Caste!  These benefits of Caste are the direct results of Caste Discriminations.

 

Caste is based on Colour.  Caste can only be understood only when one lives through India, and either benefits from it or suffers from it.  Caste is segregating People into different Groups Categories and People.  That is based on their Varna or Colour - the Black and the White, and different grades and shades in between the extremes of Black and White!  It is not just the colour of the person today, but the original colour of their forefathers!  An original Black may not be that Black today, or even be nearly fair.  Similarly an original white, may nearly be black today!  But that does not matter.  The white coloured Aryan and his Women had in open aggressiveness, or discreetly and stealthily, or on the sidelines adultered and mixed with the indigenous Black Dravidians of the Indus Valley and their descendents.  The original colour, or the colour of the majority of the group from which the person hails from, and the facial features or other anthropological characters of not the individual but the group of people belonging to that caste, determines the benefits the individual can claim or the sufferings that will be heaped on the person, at any given point of time or throughout in life!  And of course there are many false white people, who were never white, but claim a white ancestry of the dominant castes!  That is their answer to the dominant castes, or an easy way to escape discriminations, and get out of the reality of being born in an oppressed black caste like those of dalitindia. 

 

And Colour is based on Caste.  Caste now called as jati, was originally known as Varna.  The common people in the Country still refer to it only as Varna, and the Caste System is Varnashram System or Vanavyavstha!  The terms jathi and caste are still not popular with an average Indian.  Varna always meant Colour.  Since People were originally divided on the basis of visible Racial Identity or the most important anthropological factor - Colour, and segregated into separate Varnas, Varna slowly began to signify classification, segregation and grouping of People on the basis of colour, and means Castes!  In the beginning, the Aryans were Varnas, and were part of the Aryavamsa, whereas the indigenous Indus Valley Dravidians were Dasas the Slaves, and were the Anaryans - the Colourless People.  For, to an Aryan, Colour meant being pale or light coloured or fair or white!  All indigenous black Dravidins meant, the colourless People!  So they were also referred to as Avarnas - the People without Colour, or not being fair and white.  Hence they were excluded from the fair white Aryan Society!  The coloured blacks were dismissed with contempt and denigration as Avarnas and colourless people!  Dalitindia therefore in their vocabulary was black.  Hence Avarnas, or those without Varna or without Castes were Colourless and Casteless People!  Or simply they were Outcastes, living in the unseen peripherals and the margins.  No one bothered or worried about them.

 

Colour is important to Caste.  Colour that predominates the community from which one hails from, determines the Caste of that person, and the respect he can get amongst the People in any part of the Country, and anywhere in the World where the Indians may be living.  The actual skin Colour of a person may bear no significance whatsoever, in determining whether he or she belongs to and has to be - condemned as being part of a colourless black person of the denigrated Black Castes, or be benefited and showered with rewards and honour as being a member of a fair coloured person of the elitist white castes.

 

Caste is based on Birth.  In India, one is born in Caste, grows in Caste and Dies in Caste.  Everyone in India is accepted or rejected, tolerated or pushed out, and is honoured or discriminated because of the Caste, and on Death is buried in the Cemetry or burnt in the Crematorium based on Caste.  Which Cemetery and Crematorium, is also determined by the Caste!  Once born in a family, one can not escape or shed or change the Caste.  For, Caste is based on Birth, even if conceived outside, or from outside!

 

Caste is Race.  Caste based on colour of the group to which one belongs to, and the facial features, physical characteristics and other anthropological classifications of the group from which one hails from, than the personality achievements capabilities capacity and intellectual of the Individual, has all the attributes of Racial Differentiations based on colour, continent, creed etc, is Race.  The members of each caste enjoying the benefits or suffering discrimnations etc do so on the basis of Racial Considerations Biases and Prejudices.

 

Caste is Hierarchic.  Castes are basically Four!  They are all arranged vertically in an hierarchic ladder like or pyramidical social structure, with ascending privileges and benefits, and in the descending order lesser privileges and benefits including lesser and lesser wages salaries and lower jobs and social status, but increasing discriminations work-load responsibilities deprivals denigrations and discriminations!  All others are casteless people and or are the outcastes!

 

Caste is Unique to India.  One sees hears and feels Caste, its benefits and discriminations only in India and in Indian Communities living even outside India.  Though no Society or Nation in the World can claim to be free from injustices favouriticisms and discriminations, there is nothing which is  historical, debilitating, sapping, grounding, killing, destroying, destructive and yet continuing as Caste Discrimination.  Caste Discrimination and its Nature is so pervasive and persisting that it has the unique distinction of being used as the test stone of classifying and measuring any discrimination in any part of the World.  That is how one frequently comes across phrases such as Caste Discrimination, equivalent to Caste Discrimination, or Caste-like-Discrimination. 

 

Caste is an evil System.  Caste is not just based on birth, and inseparable part of India and an Indian.  But it is a massive oppressive exploitative system that binds people!  Caste makes people, kills people and destroys people!  Caste is the most Evil System on the Earth!

 

Caste System is Aryan.  Caste is definitely unique to India.  Caste is based on Race!  Caste benefits the Aryans!  Caste may not be Aryan!  But the Caste System is!  At least the Caste System had been adopted perfected and fully made use of by the Aryans for their advantage benefit and social political and cultural superiority.  It is a product of the conflicting interests and continuing struggles between the nomadic and invading Aryans and the local Indigenous People of the pre-Vedic Periods.  Caste System had been evolved for the benefits of the Aryans to ensure their materialistic needs, physical space, political suzerainty, social control, economic advantage and cultural domination.  That the Aryans could establish and sustain through the Castes, Caste System and Caste Discriminations over the last three to four millenniums.  With the aryan brahmins dominating, they have hoodwinked even the unconquerable and indominatable native rulers to uphold their interests, and assigned them the Caste Dominance next only to them, thus silently and deliberately denigrating them to the second position.  They had coopted the enterprising traders, merchants and business class of comprador agents as the Vaishyas, allocated third position from the top.  Thus a trading rich baniya not only provides money and material wealth to the aryan brahmin at the top, but also accepts always an inferior position in the Society and Caste hierarchy.  The defeated and indegenous people spared of execution were enslaved as the captive workers of the Aryan dominated Castes within the Caste System.  Outside were, all those Anaryan Local People who could not be enslaved and subjugated even after long ongoing conflicts with the locals and caste cooption of the traders and caste subversion of the black agrarian based local rulers. 

 

Caste is Vedic.  Caste has its Origin in the endless conflicts and the resultant antagonism between the migrant invading Aryans and the indegenous pre-Aryan Dravidian People of the Indus Valley Civilization.  The Aryans denigrated both the enslaved and vanquished, and the defeated Dravidins.  The Aryans looked down at the Dravidians.  They did not like the short black curly-haired thick lipped Dravidians speaking their own Dravidian Languages, which the Aryans could not understand!  The Aryans speak about these in clear unambiguous terms in their Rig Veda itself.  Fools they being, they try to explain the creation of the Castes in Rig Veda.  But now embarrassed for their foolishness and for misleading the People and the World, they now try to duck and hide saying that the Caste System in the Rig Veda was an Interpolation.  If it was really a later interpolation, how then the caste emerged in the Rig Vedic Period itself? 

 

Caste always was and is destructive!  It started by destroying the Civilization of the Indus Valley People.  It enslaved all those whom they could catch and take prisoners!  It froze the Development of the Native People.  That sealed any Development or Progress Growth and Strength of India and the Indian People.  The technology, technical knowledge, and the technical skills, remained as it was then, and did not develop, evolve, grow or progress any further, beyond that stage when the Indus Valley Civilization was destroyed.  It is sad that this happened even though the Indian Sub-Continent had a very good salubrious weather, with reasonably temperate sun, regular seasonal rains, and favorable wind conditions, for growth, development and evolution of a rich society and human civilization. 

 

Caste prevented emergence of Indian Nationality.  The Indian People could never became the People of a Nation.  Indian Nation never emerged!  Only small small kingdoms and principalities in thousands emerged.  These further divided the People of the Indian Sub-Continent. The People therefore remained seperate as divided antagonistic warring people, arraigned against one another.  This, in spite of an almost closed protected living within the Shores of the Indian Ocean on three sides, and the long massive high Himalayan Mountain Range on the fourth side in the North.  This therefore prevented any integration of the people, and emergence of a big strong homogenous united Society.  And the erstwhile Rulers and local Leaders of the old small kingdoms and principalities, still divide the People with their own personal private vested interests, clothed and camouflaged under regional, language, dialect, religious and other emotional and easily inflammable issues.  Behind these issues the cheap small minded 'big' leaders hide many many of their private and secret agendas.  It is there lurk the invisible dangers to the Indian People, Indian Society, Indian Govt and the Indian State.

 

Caste denigrates and looks down at the indigenous People.  Along with these denigrated looked down people were clubbed and relegated all other subsequent migrants new-comers invaders conquerors and even the mighty moghuls who created the first ever empire of Hindustan, and the all conquering Colonizing Imperial Western European Rulers, Races and People!

 

Why Castes?  Castes help discriminations on easy and viable lines, based on the Castes, Caste System, Norms of the Caste System, Caste Rules, Caste Dharma and Caste Prescriptions!  These Caste Discriminations were the ones that had helped the Aryans, to keep themselves distinct separate and distant from the Indigenous People of India, in spite of nearly three to four millenniums of social upheavals, political shakeups, foreign invasions, conquests, killings, genocide and ethnocide.  What is more unique is the fact that the Aryans stand apart not only from the Indigenous People, but also from other conquerors and invaders who came to India over those long millenniums after their entry into this sub-Continent!  This is because of the Uniqueness of the Caste, and how the Aryans have made use of the caste, caste differentiations and caste discriminations over those millenniums, to suit the time occasion and each challenge, to ultimately survive and raise up again to dominate.  Thus they had survived almost every type of challenge including the Muslim, Moghul and the Imperialistic European Colonial Rulers like the British, French and the Portuguese. 

 

Caste is Isolating!  Caste has always helped the Aryans to identify themselves, differentiate themselves from the rest to distance themselves.  It had helped them to live separately and isolated.  They could socially economically politically and culturally isolate themselves and be separate as a group community and people!  This Isolation Separation and Racial Segregation had helped them to protect their Women and Girls biologically socially and culturally from the rest of the People, particularly their original enemies and continuing antagonists, the Indigenous People of the Indus Valley Civilization and the hinterlands!

 

Caste may not be Race, some say!  That is a lie!  A big lie!  That is being dishonest!  That is fraudulent!  That is cheating! 

 

Caste is Race!  Caste is Colour!  Caste is Based on Birth!  Caste is also Ethnic!  And if Caste is not Race, what then is it?  

 

If Everest is not the highest point of the Himalayan Mountain Range, what could it be?  Is it just the tip of a Stone? 

 

Similarly if Caste is not Race, then nothing else could qualify to be a Race in this World!  And nothing else would merit a discussion or Meet on Racial Discrimination!  Please recall the Discriminations of the helpless poor Castes and Casteless People who were also the victims and sufferers in Gujarat Earthquake.  The hindu religious organizations, caste hindu groups and hindu state sponsored and Govt supported NGOs in Gujarat refused to entertain the SC&ST Dalits, Christians and Muslims help.  They refused to provide succour, or give any of the relief material and food items sent by International Agencies and various Govts from abroad, and also made available by many State and UT Govts and the Govt of India, on grounds of the victims being Avarnas, the Casteless People. 

 

Similar were the situation earlier in Orissa Cyclone.  There as in Gujarat, the caste hindu Volunteers, NGOs, and other Workers refused to go to the help of SC&ST Dalits, stranded in the flood with out any food or drinking water or shelter..  The DCHs refused to handle the dead, remove them to burry or burn!  Even in the face of intolerable stink from the rotting corpses, and fear of pollution and out break of epidemics due to the rotting dead bodies of human beings and animals of every kind and size, the caste hindus preferred to wait for the Dalits or the Army to come and dispose of the carcasses.  A Special Team of Sweepers had to be sent from far away Delhi, to clear the bodies of the dead.  If such Discriminations can occur in the Twenty-first Century, and the believers of Caste and Religion can go to that extent, right in the face of death and even after escaping by a hair's breadth after a serious encounter with death and Natures Fury, are these not Race?  If such things can happen even now, is Caste not Race?  

 

Infact Caste should then be Race Plus, or more than Race!  A Caste Hindu should be more than an Animal and a Devil, and be really an incarnation of the Satan!  They should be a plague on the earth, and a curse on the humanity! 

 

If Caste is not Race, were all the Caste Discriminations, Crimes against the SC&ST Dalits and Dalit Carnages only a joke? 

 

Caste had always been directed against SC&ST Dalits!  

 

Caste was originally used by the invading barbaric Aryans, only to keep out the native Dravidians of the Indus Valley Civilization!  It appears that the Aryans had designed the Castes against the indigenous Dravidian People of the Indus Valley Civilization.

 

Caste was enforced to banish the Dalits from the Indus Valley Three to four millenniums ago! 

 

Caste was forced upon the People to deny the Dalits any human considerations! 

 

Caste is too serious a matter to be either neglected, or brushed aside, or belittled as a slight aberration! 

 

Caste is a Crime Against Humanity! 

 

Caste is too serious an issue to be neglected or brushed aside anymore!

 

Caste is Race! 

 

Caste is based on Race!

 

Caste has always been Race! 

 

Caste System is based on the Conflicts and ensuing continuing struggles basically between the nomadic new comers - the Aryans of the Vedic Period and those Indigenous People of the pre-historic India. 

 

Caste is Racial, based on the Colour differences between the two Races of People, and on their anthropological features and racial differences!  Those who feel otherwise, argue that Aryans did not create Castes in any other parts of the World other than India, where all they had migrated.  May be true, that Caste was not only Unique to India, but was based on some social economic work and organizational differences of the Native Indegenous People of Indus Valley Civilizations.  But, the Aryans definitely adopted it, and made use of it to their best and utmost advantages!  Those who are of Aryan descent or hold loyalty to the Aryans and Aryan Races, and do not want to accept any accountability or blame or responsibility to the Caste System, argue at times that Caste is not Race!  In the back of their mind that Scientifically and Biologically the whole humanity is one Race, the homo-sapiens!  And it is stupid, unscientific and un-academic to talk of Aryan and Dravidian Races, or refer to Monogoloid or African or Austroloid Races!  May be true, but in the Anthropological sense, and Sociological and or Political usage Aryan, Dravidian, Monogoloid, African, Austroloid and Red-Indian Races exist and are a reality!  Hence to say that Caste may not be Race is a political gimmick, and is itself a Racial Statement to cover-up shield and protect the Indian Aryans from blame for harnessing the Castes, evolving the Caste System and for perpetrating and perpetuating the associated Caste Discriminations!

 

Castes were introduced, the Caste System was evolved, only to perpetrate and perpetuate the associated Caste Discriminations!

 

Caste Discriminations are Permanent.  Since Caste Benefits, there is a need for it!  At least the felt need for the same exists with some.  But, all discriminations are painful, costly and needs efforts.  Hence, there are always losses in discriminations!  Hence, more and more discriminations have to be resorted to benefit a little!  Since these Discriminations are based on Caste, the discriminated are those who have always been discriminated, again and again discriminated, constantly discriminated and continuously discriminated!  Hence the discriminated have very little to be discriminated.  Yet, as the benefits to flow from discriminations of the continuously discriminated, a very large numbers of individuals have to be discriminated to benefit a few!  Since more individuals are discriminated, and such discriminations directly benefit a few, that too almost continuously, the discriminations continue endlessly.  And the few beneficiaries remain close knit, had developed extraordinary vested interests, developed a strong clout to sustain and continue the discriminations!  These discriminations based on invasions conquests colour and visible anthropological considerations of Racial Features had left deep conscious unconscious and sub-conscious antagonisms that are hard to shake up or shed.  Therefore, Caste Discriminations are Permanent.

 

Caste Struggle is Class Struggle.  Those who suffer because of the Castes and Caste Discrimination, want to get out of Castes, and prefers to Struggle against the Castes.  But not always!  For, many are not even aware of their sufferings, and what they miss, or are forced to miss in life, and what all they are being deprived off!  They are not most of the times even aware that the comfortable life of others is not due to the later and is not because of their efforts but because of their work creations and produce!  They are not aware that what most others possess are theirs, and what those others have are mostly theirs!  The sufferers of the Caste System are almost everyone in the Indian Society, right after those at the helm of the caste system who benefit the most.  In fact even they and the whole Nation, Nation's Economy, Nation's Development and Nation's Progress suffer because the of the Caste System and Caste Discriminations.  To be honest, the People, the Country and the Indian Nation had all suffered irreparable and great damages repeatedly and throughout the History, because of the Caste System and Caste Biases and Discriminations!  But, very few realize these, and even those who realize these hardly want to do anything!  For most of them, except those at the very bottom suffer totally and absolutely.  All others, suffer differentially depending upon the Caste and Social Level they are at, in the vertical graded hierarchic system that India is.  And even all of those Castes who suffer the most in the hands of the DCHs, enjoy certain minimal Caste Privileges and Benefits because they are somewhat above in the Caste Hierarchy!  And those who enjoy Privileges and Benefits, never want to part with them, even if they are very minor Privileges and Benefits, or are only tokenisms!  

 

Those who benefit, Resist any Change in the Caste System when those suffering the most want and cry for a Change!  Thus there is clash of interests, differences in perspective and clash of interests, and needs!  Therefore the Caste Struggle!  Those who want to get out of Caste Discriminations and those who Benefit from the Castes, Caste System and Caste Discriminations, get always into confrontation mode and socially antagonistic positions, even if the same are not visible or perceptible to others! 

 

Caste Conflicts are Racial Upheavals!  There are frequent Caste Conflicts over basic social activities, like walking through the streets, riding an horse or a cycle, or owning a car. 

 

Caste continues even after death.  Caste travels beyond life.  Caste moves to burial grounds.  Dalitindia being the native Dravidian, their dead are buried, and not burnt like the Aryanss!  Caste follows dalitindia even into the burial grounds.  Dalitindia has separate burial grounds.  Not only their colonies but even their roads are separate. 

 

Caste is now being justified.  Caste is justified on many grounds.  Caste is said to be based on Professions, Jobs, Skills and Expertise. 

 

Caste is now also being rationalized.  Many reasons are now being brought forward for the Castes.  It is said to be a distortion of the old system of unharmful sharing of work.  What a distortion?  A distortion that is shamelessly being honoured and worshipped with blood rape and killings of millions of dalits!  What an unharmful sharing of work? 

 

Dalitindia's isolation is rationalized on grounds of purity and pollution.  That is a joke!  For the brahmins are the most dirtiest people in the World!  Purity of the brahmins who stink is not real, but is ritualistic.  Brahmins are those -  Who never used to clean their mouth, and brush their teeth properly.  Who never used to take a proper bath.  Who just dip themselves once, or twice, or thrice ritually in the water!  Who never even today use a soap to bath.  If at all they use, they use it only to wash their hands and face.  Those who never wash their hands after going to toilet.  Who just poor a pot or bucket of water over their heads, fully dressed in the open public places near a well or a public tap, and say they had taken a bath!  A ritualistic bath!  A namesake bath, even today!  Who change their dress after the ritualistic bath in the public open places, and then dry their clothes as they are without washing or even rinsing them!  Who for washing their clothes, just rinse the clothes in the ponds or tanks or a bucket of water. Who just poor water on the clothes and then dry them up as a lump, with out even spreading them out on the grass or a line.  Who don't use any soap for washing their clothes, or just rinse in soap water once or twice, and then dip in water and dry them out without bothering to see the clothes are free from soap.  Whose clothes, even if costly, washed and nicely ironed out at home, stink horribly and intolerably because of the improper wash and rinsing!  This even today! 

 

Dalitindia's sufferings are reasoned out on grounds of hygiene and cleanliness. 

 

Dalitindia's isolation and segregation is being justified on the ground that it is engaged in unclean jobs like leather work and scavenging.

 

Caste System is also being rationalized.  The oppressive Caste Exploiters say that the Caste System was developed as a Rational Scientific Way of apportioning and sharing work amongst the different Groups of People.  What rationality?  Bones for you, flesh for us!  May be they mean to say, 'We give you really all the heavy hard strong things to bite and eat, where as we only take the soft things!'  Perhaps what they meant is, "Yes, we leave for you the bones as we throw them to our dogs, to keep the dogs quiet busy and foolishly engaged in trying stupidly again and again to bite and eat the unbitable and uneatable bones.  The Caste Discriminators say that the Caste System is a Cooperative way of Social Living, each group doing the Works they are capable of, and are specialized in doing!  What a Cooperation?  All good things for some!  All easy things for some!  And here again all soft things, the soft works for some!  All drudgery for others!  All hard works for the masses!  All difficult works for the discriminated!  Those discriminated three to four millenniums ago!  All miserable works for the despised!  Despised right during and before the Rig Veda, the first work of the invading Aryans destroyers.  All dangerous works for the common people!  All unhygienic works for the poor!  All unclean works for the helpless! 

 

Caste India is arrogant, discriminatory, unfair, unjust, exploitative, oppressive.  Caste India is Racial India. 

 

dalitindia is Avarnas, without Varnas, without Colour, without Castes.  They were the real and original Casteless People of India.  They are the Indigenous People of India.  They are the SC&ST Dalits today.  They are the Adivasis or the Aborigines of India.

 

dalitindia is an ungrateful one.  dalitindia is totally indebted to the Muslims who came to India for willy-nilly beginning a serious and powerful onslaught on Caste India, and for starting the process of slow but steady and the still continuing Dalit Conversions into Islam, Christian Missionaries of various Denominations from different small and big West-European Nations and America, the almost forgotten Dutch Rulers whose legacy still lives in Serampore around the Serampore University, French Rulers in the small area of French India centered around Pondichery, the big powerful plenipotent colonial Imperial British Rulers both in India and England, the Native Rulers like Sahu Maharaj, Maharaja of Mysore, Nizam of Deccan Hyderabad, and most importantly the Great Messiah Baba Saheb Dr BR Ambedkar.  But sadly enough dalitindia had either forgotten them or is totally neglecting them most of the times, particularly at important crucial moments.  The most ungrateful of all in dalitindia are the educated people, particularly the well employed ones like Doctors, Engineers, and those in the various Administrative Police Para-Military and Military Services.  This ungratefulness and indifference on the part of the Educated and well Employed could be seen by Baba Saheb himself.  Baba Saheb during his last days talked about them in Nagpur, how they had belied his hopes, and betrayed the Dalit Communities and their Development.  Things had not changed in spite of Baba Saheb's public expression of dismay and criticism.  On the other hand dalitindia is proving to be more and more selfish, hollow and ungrateful.  A great wise Dalit recently said with great pain and disappointment, 'In my forty years of working with Dalit Communities Employees and senior Officials, I am yet to see a SC or ST Dalit who is grateful to Baba Saheb for Free ships, Scholarships, Reservations in Colleges and Universities, and the Reservations in Recruitments Appointments, Trainings, Postings and Promotions all of which had facilitated a few millions of SC&ST Dalits to get Education and Manage to complete their Studies without discontinuing for want of funds, in getting a good Job and making them a little important in life.  This is sad.  They are so ungrateful to even tell other SC&ST Dalits that they had come up in life by shear hard work on their own efforts, without any help whatsoever, or making use of Reservations.  What lies?'  Another great Dalit once said, 'I am surprised to see the emergence of sly cunning crude cheats and betrayers amongst We SC&ST Dalits.  The brahmins and their brahminism and hinduism is making deep inroads into our minds.  The weak in mind heart and flesh are easily falling their prey'  Yes, he was very right.  There are many number of cases where certain SC&ST Dalit Officials, both small and big.
