| Summary, etc. |
Continued failure on the part of the State and civil society to check human rights violations against the Dalits, despite existence of stringent laws, raises questions about the role of the Indian State. While it is argued that the State is necessary to protect the human rights of Dalits, and that the Dalits can depend on the State to protect their rights, this article, besides reviewing the constitutional safeguards for Dalits, reviews the performance of the State in ensuring a life with dignity for Dalits. It points out that bias against the Dalits is in-built within the State machinery; and hence, the State alone cannot be expected to protect the Dalits from human rights violations. In which case, the question of whether the Dalits should repose faith in the Indian State for protection of their rights to equal treatment is raised. - Reproduced. |
