Even after so many years of Independence,the status of Dalits have remained unchanged in India.Even now they face all types of discrimination in education,work or industry.Even the children face the brunt of the upper castes in most of the villages.The atrocities on Dalits have not minimized and they have been denied justice.
In a recent incidence a 13 year old Dalit boy was chained to a tractor and dragged around Basaura village under the Shrinagar police station in Mahoba district for allegedly holding a minor girl’s hand.The boy suffered serious injuries and was admitted to a hospital where doctors stated his condition to be stable.
