The ancient caste system of India, which has resulted in the social and economic oppression of the Dalits, continues to play a dominant role in India. The organization of the caste system and its entrenchment within Indian history has resulted in centuries of hostile interaction between classes. In rural areas, Dalits were excluded from temples, village wells and tea shops. In some areas of the country, the Dalits were not permitted to walk in daylight for their shadows were considered pollution. The book focuses on the ways of living and the factors that have caused to change their socioeconomic and political life. It also provides information on the physical features, history of origin, Social system, rites and rituals; economic activities, administration and justice; religion and culture, inter-community relationship, and modernisation. Hence, this well-knitted; well-researched and well-debated work on this subject is highly academic and research quality will be appreciated and accepted by students; scholars and teachers.
