Nearly 10,000 people poured into a school's grounds in Una in Gujarat yesterday to protest repeated attacks on Dalits in the state. Together, they pledged they will no longer remove dead cows or skin them, refusing to subscribe to poorly-paid and gruelling occupations thrust upon lower castes. With caste tension seething in this south-western part of Gujarat, 19 people, including three policemen, were injured in clashes after the rally and hospitalised. On Agenda - activist and Magsaysay Award winner Bezwada Wilson and others debate the road ahead for the Dalit assertion movement triggered by caste violence in Una.
