- Summary:
- Dalits are those untouchables, who followed Ambedkar and Harijans are those who followed Gandhi. History of India is really the history of conflict among the Buddhists and the Brahminists for centuries. The creation of untouchability is the religious persecution of the Buddhists by the Brahmins. History of caste system, creation of untouchability and its results are not very pleasant for the Indians. A country spreading to Afghanistan having only two languages and one script is divided into numerous warring regions with diverse cultures. The ills of caste system and measures to annihilate it were propagated by Ambedkar as early as 1936, but nobody paid heed to it. It must be realised that caste discrimination caused ruin of the country in the past and can do more harm in future if not corrected. These are the issues, this book attempts to address.
