What issues did the Dalit Panthers address?

Answer»

The Dalit youth formed a militant organisation group ‘Dalit Panther’ in 1972 in Maharashtra. The main objective of the group was to fight against the caste based inequalities and material injustices that were faced by the Dalits. They demanded strict implementation of reservations and other such policies of social justice. The larger ideological agenda was to destroy the caste system and to build an organisation of oppressed sections like the landless peasants, industrial workers and Dalits.
