In this country cows 🐄 are given more protection than #dalits ! 10 dalit women are sexually assaulted within 24 hours! If this data does not shock you then what will lets #castoutcaste before its too late #DalitLivesMatter
Manual scavenging - a blot on humanity! More than 95% of manual scavengers are women! #CastOutCaste because Dalits Rights are Human Rights!
#DalitLivesMatter @PriyankaSamy
Access to markets is still denied so even if Dalits have aspirations of entrepreneurship, they are unable to sell their produce.

stop discrimination in markets #CastOutCaste before its too late #dalitlivesmatter
During #covid Dalits were chased from ration shops for demanding PDS! Even during a disaster Caste works! #castoutcaste
Even access to health is very difficult when people mandated to visit do not as they think they will be polluted by visiting!

#DalitLivesMatter
Access to justice is a Basic human right but Dalits are still prevented from entering police stations #castoutcaste #DalitLivesMatter
For #DalitLivesMatter, land distribution is crucial. Many dalits are employed in agriculture, they don’t own the land. Majority of the agricultural land owned by dalits is in the form of small holdings. #CastOutCaste #DalitLivesMatter
Right to vote is a right to every citizen but as Dalits they find barriers in accessing this right!

Eliminate institutional discrimination #castoutcaste #DalitLivesMatter
Who says caste does not exist, even sitting next to Dalits is still a big NO No! #castoutCaste
Low wages are at the core of economic deprivation of dalits. Dalit workers are often paid lower wages than other workers. #CastOutCaste #DalitLivesMatter @DalitRights
The practice of the 'Devadasi System' continues unabated in South India nearly after a century since it was first banned! We demand - @PriyankaSamy
#RestorativeJustice!
#Castoutcaste #DalitLivesMatter
If 3 out of every 10 Dalits are denied from accessing the police station, we can’t expect the current system to provide justice to Dalits. #CastOutCaste

#Thread Bunch of Thoughts (RSS Ideology)

“The feeling of inequality, of high and low, which has crept into the Varna system, is comparatively of recent origin. The perversion was given a further fillip by the scheming Britisher in line with his 'divide and rule' policy. 1/n
But in its original form, the distinctions in that social order did not imply any discrimination such as big and small, high and low, among its constituents. On the other hand, the Gita tells us that the individual who does his assigned duties in life in a spirit of selfless..2/n
service only worships God through such performance.” (Bunch of Thoughts; Once the Glory, PP 98)....3/n

#Thread Babasaheb's view on China.

"Buddha would never allow violence, but the communists do. No doubt the communists get quick results because when you adopt the means of annihilating a man, they do not remain to oppose you. Humanity does not only want economic values, 1/n
it also wants spiritual values to be retained. Permanent communist dictatorship has paid no attention to spiritual values and does not seem to intend to. Carlyle called political economy a pig philosophy. Carlyle was of course wrong. For man needs material comforts. 2/n
But the communist philosophy seems to equally wrong, for the aim of their philosophy seems to be fatten pigs, as though men are no better than pigs. Man must grow materially as well as spiritually. Buddha’s method was to change the mind of man without the use of force. 3/n
