Answer:

Dalit- and Adivasi-dominated areas saw marked protests during the Bharat Bandh on April 2, in protest against the dilution of certain stringent provisions of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention) of Atrocities Act 1989 by a Supreme Court judgment. The ruling has provided the Dalits and Adivasis an opportunity to come together for a common struggle.

Though the protest was widespread in Mahar- and Jatav (Ravidas)-dominated pockets of India, the uneasiness, and at some places anger, have spread to other educationally backward and economically empowered Dalits too. In Bihar, they have been given the name of Mahadalits by the Nitish Kumar government.

The tribal dominated areas of Jharkhand too witnessed the impact of the April 2 shutdown, yet no major incident of violence broke out there, nor in the ST dominated pockets of Odisha, MP and Chhattisgarh. In Punjab, UP, Bihar and Haryana there is huge SC population but the presence of tribals is negligible.

As the social ostracisation of Dalits is more pronounced––for obvious religious and historical reasons––and the number of cases of atrocities against them are much higher than STs, it was natural for them to react sharply after the apex court ruling.

At this point it needs to be mentioned that the other influential castes did not sit idle when the Dalits took to streets. At many places, especially in Madhya Pradesh, they did try to counter the Dalits, and in some cases allegedly with firepower. The fact is six of the seven people killed in clashes in this state on April 2 were Dalits, mostly of gunshot wounds. However, in Bihar, several social activists and politicians belonging to upper and backward castes supported them.

Hey....

  • Adivasis, as their name reflects, are the earliest inhabitants of the subcontinent and once inhabited much larger areas than they do at present. Little is known of their history, although it appears that many were pushed into the hill areas after the invasions of the Indo-Aryan tribes 3,000 years ago.
