Letter Published in The National UAE on 31Jan 19 Honour Gandhi’s legacy by supporting India’s dalits
I write in reference to Rashmee Roshan Lall’s opinion piece Forced to fight their own fight: how Dalit women are caught in the crossfire between misogyny and casteism in India (January 30). On the 71st year of the late Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination, India’s dalits still face discrimination in a casteist society. Political parties use this issue as a tool to win votes but successive governments have failed to eradicate the inequality. Someone must fulfil the dream of Mahatma Gandhi.
