Dalit Activists Shed Light On Their Condition & Challenges They Face In India | IT Conclave 2019

A panel of Dalit activists and a political leader shared their stories of oppression and struggle at India Today Conclave 2019 session 'Why We Marched'. Singer and Dalit activist Bant Singh, whose daughter was raped when she was in Class 10, shared his long fight for justice. He spoke about his daughter who gave him the strength to survive and fight despite his limbs being amputated after he was attacked by upper caste people in his village. Dalit activist and Magsaysay Award winner Bezwada Wilson, who was born in Karnataka's Kolar in a family of manual scavengers, said "In our country, we have no concept of equality. Even today more than 1.6 lakh people clean human excreta by hand and they are an invisible lot." Meanwhile, Gujarat MLA Jignesh Mevani, who was also present at the same session, said, "This is all one big circus and while we have the technology to discover water on Mars, we have not found the technology to help manual scavengers." #LetsConclave19 #JigneshMevani #IndiaTodayConclave2019 The India Today Conclave 2019 will reflect its theme Hard Choices and more over two days of intense discussions, sparkling debates, and rare insights which will showcase the political, economic and social choices India confronts.
