Dalit Identity in the New Millennium (In 10 Volumes)

Ramesh Chandra (Author) Dr. Sangh Mittra (Author)

Synopsis The subject of Dalit Identity has of late developed into a new area of research. Today, scholars approach this subject with much more sophistication than what they used to do about two decades back. This project marks a welcome recognition of the achievements registered by Dalits in various spheres of life despite the adverse circumstances they were placed in. Glearing examples in the respect are those of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Babu Jagjivan Ram and K.R. Narayanan who played commemorable roles in various fields, particularly in the fields of framing of the constitution of India, fighting for the countryâ€™s emancipation and securing of social justice for the depressed classes respectively. A part from the Dalit leaders of the past, the project also focusses on the contribution made by present day leaders like Kashi Ram, Mayawati, Ram Vilas Paswan, Meera Kumar, Surajbhan, Ajit Jogi and so on. This project covers a wide variety of themes ranging from the caste system in India to the spread of Buddhism to the biographical speeches of some of the eminent Dalit leaders. This project would go a longway in establishing the identity of the Dalits on a firm footing and in evadicating the notion that the Dalits occupy an inferior position in society. This project would prove to be of immense use to researchers as well as laymen.
