Scholarly attention to the multiple and interconnected identities of Dalit women, with respect to conjugal relationships, mothering practices, care work, and children’s education, remains limited. The paper explores how Balmiki women navigate caste and patriarchal structures, marital disappointments, and care responsibilities through maternal logics within the conjugal relationship. – Reproduced
