Question

Why do you think Omprakash Valmiki was being treated by his teacher and his classmates?lmagine yourself as Omprakash Valmiki and write four lines about how you were in the same situation as him.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Omprakash Valmiki was being treated unequally by his teacher and his classmates because he was a Dalit boy. Dalits are lower caste people who are socially and economically backwards.

I was directed to clean the grounds for longer hours. At that moment my classmates were reading in the class.

I didn’t have equal opportunities for reading as others had.

I was not allowed to drink from the water earthen pots as others drank. It led me to remain thirsty for the long hours in the school.

I was also discriminated against in the sitting arrangements because I had to sit in the last of other students on the floor.
