The cost of being a Dalit: Rapes, murders, and public humiliation plague communities across the states
Across several states, a troubling pattern of violence and discrimination against Dalits persists—ranging from severe crimes like the sexual assault of minors in Uttar Pradesh to acts of public humiliation, such as attacks on wedding processions and the denial of cremation rights.
