Description
Untouchable Chandals of India: The Democratic Movement is a comprehensive study of one of India’s most persecuted communities and their struggle for social justice. Author S. K. Biswas traces the historical trajectory of the Chandals, traditionally considered untouchables under the caste system, and documents their pivotal role in India’s democratic movement.
The book delves into the socio-political activism that emerged from this community, examining how they leveraged democratic institutions and principles to challenge centuries of discrimination and oppression. Through detailed historical analysis and social commentary, Biswas reveals the resilience and determination of the Chandals in their fight for dignity, rights, and equal participation in Indian society. This work serves as an important contribution to understanding grassroots democratic movements and social change in modern India.
