Nehru's Silence on Dalits
Pandit Nehru has never shown any interest in the Scheduled Caste people. During the last twenty years he has been in the forefront of politics. He must have addressed not less than two thousand meetings. Has he ever referred to the wrong done to the Scheduled Caste people? Never so for as my memory goes.Has Nehru ever expressed any shame or any remorse about the condition of the 60 million of untouchables? Has he anywhere referred to them in the content of literature which comes out from his pen?
