Abstract

The word ‘Dalit’ is identified differently by different writers according to their understanding and experiences. Dr. Pantawane has defined Dalits in his book as, “Dalit is not a caste. Dalit is a symbol of change and revolution. The Dalit believes in humanism. He rejects the existence of God, rebirth soul, sacred books that teach discrimination, fate and heaven because these have made them a slave. They represent the exploited men in his country….Dalitness is essentially a means towards achieving a sense of cultural identity. The inferiority complex has now disappeared. Now Dalitness is a source of confrontation. This change has its essence in the desire for justice for all mankind…” From this definition, it is evident that the term dalit has a very broad perspective. At the same time, it is being observed by the different people that this term has its limitations from political point of view.
