why are dalits in secure in maharashtra
Answers
Answer:
The term 'Dalit' is a designation for a group of people traditionally regarded as untouchable. It is a term that the so-called lower castes use to address themselves. Dalit means 'broken'. By using this word, the lower castes are pointing to how they were, and continue to be, discriminated against.
Dalits form around 14 per cent of Maharashtra's population, with Buddhists accounting for over half of these numbers. Those in the SC category are eligible for 13 per cent quotas in jobs and employment.

Abstract
AbstractHuman security does not consist only of military defence, but rather focuses on the protection and wellbeing of human life and dignity. India’s performance on the human security index has been dismal on various socioeconomic and political fronts. Successive governments have failed to provide human security to its citizens especially the dalits, the marginalised and the poor—the soft targets of Indian society. Caste discrimination, the violation of dalit rights and violence against them has become customary and organised in the country. This paper examines the context of human security in India in general and with regard to dalits in particular. It also questions India’s credibility as a potential superpower given its poor performance on social indicators.
