Casteism in the time of #COVID19 pandemic
@Shalini_Yoga_ @ProfVemsani @Oprah @Oprah. Casteism in healthcare & by doctors.

Health disparities among Dalits/Adivasis are serious issues. The uppercaste hegemony, & casteism in medical profession/is unethical & creates a social burden. See this thread for details:

@Shalini_Yoga_ @ProfVemsani @Oprah @Oprah Even school meals are not free casteism. If casteism in school meals can be stopped, malnutrition among Dalit/Adivasi children can be solved. More 50% Dalit/Adivasi children suffer from extreme malnutrition.

@Shalini_Yoga_ @ProfVemsani @Oprah @Oprah UK govt has tried to pass a parliament bill that protects Dalits from atrocities by uppercaste. However, this bill was killed by RSS backed organizations. RSS has a tendency to fight against Dalit rights or Dalit history in foreign countries.
