do not paint the whole elephant with the same brush.I am from south. There are no impartial NGOs..
yeah ...burning houses by landlords are for business purposes. thanks for the enlightment.They are there for business and their business is keeping caste conflict going.
lol....when an economically affluent dalit boy cant get a so so brahmin girl to marry, i m gonna blame them on different cultures. during the past 1000 years, when there was social segregation, do u think that too was due to political exploitation ??? please go through the book "Ancient India" by Ramesh Chandra Majumder to have a better view on casteism and how it is rivetted in our social life. political implications came much later , in the 40s n 60sIf the caste oppression is missing in urban areas and only present in remote rural areas, then it is not caste dynamics at work, but the socioeconomic conditions and political exploitation aimed at deepening the fault lines. .
there were no different rules agreed. but do u think in our bz city lives we can afford to practice casteism at its fullest ??? hell no. but yeah, marriages etc are still very much looked though the glasses of casteism, rural or urban alike.Otherwise, as far as I know caste system never made different rules for urban and rural areas and it is also not the case that people are evil in rural areas and become humane only in urban areas. .
i dont.I suggest you stop reading the Marxist literature.
i hope they didnt make the grave mistake of eating from the same plate or drinking from the same cup as a brahmin
I said the bit about ... how newspaper sensationalize the news by mentioning the word Dalit. But people who committed this crime are no less evil than those delhi rape culprits. This is pure brutal and gruesome act.btw, when were u rude ???

i can go another mile replying ur observations...but what the heckI was talking about the NGOs. There are many lower caste people beating up and killing upper caste too. So you need to set aside your paint brush and learn anew about our society.
There are many many intercaste love marriages happening all over the country and there are adequate laws to protect if they face hurdles. I do not see why marriage with a Brahmin girl is the only criteria for a Dalit boy to feel free from oppression. Does he find a Dalit girl beneath him and seeks to elevate his position in life by marrying a Brahmin girl? If so, then I think the problem is with the Dalit boy and the inferiority complex he nurtures. During the past 1000 years India went through its darkest period in its entire history. I hope you have heard about it. To think society in turbulence will not have any distortions is highly unreasonable. It was political then and it is political now.
Why does Ramesh Chandra Majumdar sound like a Marxist to me? Most probably because he is. Their only qualification being their ability to lie and embellish Indian history to paint Hinduism as the darkest of all religions.
It was sensationalization by the media when they bring caste into it. Your first observation was correct.
But crime against women is needed to be brought forward, had the press not done this, this case could have also been sidelined like many other rape cases particularly in UP.It was sensationalization by the media when they bring caste into it. Your first observation was correct.
caste system is still very much in place there it seems
not that it affects Pakistan, but i am thankful we dont have such a thing in our country....feudal system - much left than to be desired

Wow! Excellent post!
the girls were dalits.got it.....
were the perpetrators dalits too ??? i dont think that was mentioned in the article ....
so answer me ...which faces more resitance......a dalit boy and a upper caste girl belonging to same place, same language, same customs or a punjabi general boy n a tamil general girl .....Marriages will be looked through the lens of casteism, because caste is so much more than just a label. It is history, it is community, it is culture, it is rituals, it is customs, it is identity. That they seek to preserve it by marrying within their own is no crime. It is no more different than a Dogra feeling his identity is threatened by the influx of immigrants from other states. If one identity is valid, so is other. It is not a matter of affording practice of casteism in urban area, it is just the realization that there is no inferior or superior people. Just people.

i guess u are intellectually not too shabby either, so ponder about it n reply back.
I blame the ISI for the rape epidemic in "shining" India !
madam its good to be an idealist, but its better to keep our feet groundedAll crime against anyone, be it men or women needs to be dealt with in accordance with the law and what was happening until now was abdication of duty by our legal system. But that is not why the media is highlighting this issue. Their motive is entirely different from justice.
