hi
as the physical violence btn OBCs and dalits are evident, we forget
that it's the 'upper' caste brahmincal legacy which allows such heinous
acts. the brahmincal philosophy of violence is more dangerous than physical
assault.
it's wrong to assume that dalits are not stereotyped. they are stereotyped
in multiple ways both by "upper" caastes and thier ruled state
machinaries...OBCs play intothe hands of this phylosophical trap is a
reality, thnks to the  RSS and sangh...which i dont consider a lesser
terrorist activity
