Acharya Pandit Sudarshan Dev who has written most comprehensive commentary on Yajurveda and Panini Ashtadhyayi hailed from a Dalit samaj. His books are used in prestigious Gurukuls and also form basis of my Veda Swadhyaya. Was respected for his expertise in Vedic Yajna. +
Remove your lenses. Caste discrimination is a society wide problem and affects even Dalit communities.
Among Brahmin samaj have come legends like Dayanand, Savarkar whose life was dedicated to destroy this evil. Ambedkar got his name from someone from Brahmin samaj.
Blame bigots and not entire samaj. Also blame those fraud Dalit groups who create disharmony, and never work to eradicate casteism within Dalit Samaj. Due to whom, even after reservations, benefits don't reach all Dalits but only few privileged ones.
Do let me know if you want to meet Pandits, Acharyas including women who wear Janeu, do pooja sanskar, and earn admiration of Samaj.
I mean those hailing from Dalit Samaj

.@swati_gs & I have moved an intervention application in the petition seeking same-sex marriage before Delhi High Court through @shashank_ssj. The original petition seeks to register such marriages under Hindu Marriage Act, 1956

We have strongly objected to this +
In Hinduism, marriage is a religious ritual. Any tinkering is a direct interference by secular state in religious practice of Hindus.
Instead, it could happen through acts that consider marriage as a civil contract +
Hindu religion and hence it's harmless marriage rituals are oldest. Why not start the initiative of inclusion of LGBTQ community with Muslim personal law, Christian Marriage Act, Parsi Marriage Act and others?+

No. You are wrong. 7.96 lists what is left unprotected after a war and allocates who must take responsibility for them. Hence includes women (because men fought the war).

Manu Smriti 7.97 (very next verse) says that the army gives everything to the ruler+
Ruler then distributes common assets in just way.

However after a king wins, the people in defeated territory become his praja (subject) and are protected.
Swami Dayanand writes here that women and children of dead warriors get their property and security from king.
+
Manu Smriti has throughout specified that nothing must happen without woman's consent. 5.149 says only family of woman (with her consent) can decide on her behalf. 7.45-52 prohibit warriors from indulging in women. Chapter 9 describes women must be respected and never forced+

I believe Sikh and Christian groups must unite with Hindus and do nothing that harms Hindus. Else they are only making their daughters vulnerable to criminals.
Christian groups must stop all their conversion activities against Hindus. If they harm interests of their elder brothers they will end up being Dhobi ka kutta.

Sikh groups must accept that they are part of Hinduism. Do they come to roads when Sikh girl marries Hindu boy?
If these groups don't reform their ways, it is inevitable that an aggressive Shuddhi/Ghar Wapsi campaign be launched by Hindus to protect themselves and girls trapped in separatist ecosystem of missionaries and neo-Sikhism.

आपो हि ष्ठा मयोभुवस्ता न ऊर्जे दधातन ।

यो वः शिवतमो रसस्तस्य भाजयतेह नः ।
उशतीरिव मातरः ॥२॥

The Shiva Tattva in this water may bless me just like cows showers their love on calves
