N2  - Dalit Issues: Caste and Class Interface will fill the gaps in the existing body of literature pertaining to Dalit issues. The book addresses the issue of Dalits struggling for the right to life, as well as their need to survive with dignity. Though this right is constitutionally granted as a fundamental right, the realization of this right is a strenuous task. Dr. Ambedkar's lifelong concern for the vulnerable took the Dalit issues at the centre-stage of national politics. Political parties took up the Dalit issues and came to power. The stakeholders, including human rights bodies, remain vocal in condemning the atrocities and injustice inflicted on Dalits. However, efforts are being made towards the realization of constitutional rights safeguarding the interests of Dalits, while creating an egalitarian society. This book will be of great help to all concerned with Dalits and human rights issues. [Subject: Sociology, India Studies, Human Rights]
