Unequal Opportunities caste_conflict.1 · dlc011

Tension between castes has been more pronounced since a recent census revealed the disproportionate representation of Brahmins in government jobs and highlighted the limited qualifications for Non-Brahmins.

Praveen's resume, his two masters in economics and law, crumpled in his hands as he stormed away furiously from another rejection. He knew he shouldn't be so angry or so surprised. He knew that when he moved to …, he would be far from the support of his forward-thinking university, and yet the blatant segregation shocked him. Despite his qualifications he was struggling to feed himself, while others, equally educated, enjoyed chai in manors. What infuriated him most was how the guards barred the way for him. As if they were any better than him in the eyes of the lords they so dearly guarded.

Equality at Last caste_conflict.2 · dlc011

The success of the Dravidian Movement's agenda has overseen the enactment of a new law and improved quality of life for non-Brahmins.

The battle was far from over, this Praveen Pallar knew. Yet he could not help but smile as he took his seat in the simple government office, the fan above him gently cooling the sweat of his back. Across from him he saw a Mr. Iyer, and to his left sat a Mr. Agastya. High caste Brahmins both. And here he was, a Pallar, holding the same position and pay as them. Neither seemed to meet his eyes. Yes, there was still work to be done, but for today, this would do. He thanked his allies who had marched and protested with him and flipped open his first file.

The Non-Brahmin Manifesto caste_conflict.4 · dlc011

The Non-Brahmin Manifesto has been circulating in …, causing tension between the … and the ….

The two party leaders sat across from each other, and their aides listened intently as the two minds battled for the second hour now. "Please, you must make the Justice Party see reason," … pleaded. "We must fight together, or we will fail!" "You will have us face the British lathis by your side, but tell me, when tomorrow comes, will you also have us govern by your side? The British have done me no more wrong than you have. Indeed, much of their deeds have been guided by your hands."

Untouchables and Outcasts caste_conflict.5 · dlc011

To assert their rights, the Dalit community drank from a public water tank that they had been denied access to. This nonviolent protest was led by … and, in turn, met with a protest by Brahmin priests.

The young Dalit girl, Meena, watched the procession from afar, hidden behind a large tree. She had come here the day before with her mother, and they had drank from the water tank. It had seemed like a big event, though she had just been to skip work that day. But what she saw now horrified her, these priests were pouring cow urine and dung into the water. Had Meena drunk cow urine water? Either way, she would never drink from this polluted tank again.
