Dalit leader Kudmal Ranga Rao remembered

Staff Reporter


Bangalore: The former Minister and Congress MLA G. Parameshwar on
Sunday asserted that Dalits should unite and continue their struggle
to secure justice and equality in society.

Speaking at a seminar organised by Karnataka State Dalit Sangarsha
Samithi (KSDSS) to mark their leader Kudmal Ranga Rao's 150 birth
anniversary, Mr. Parameshwar said it was unfortunate that even after
so many years of Independence, Dalits were still considered as
outcastes. Hailing Kudmal Ranga Rao's contribution towards the uplift
of Dalits, Mr. Parameshwar said: "Despite being a Brahmin, Kudmal did
so much for Dalits. It is not enough if we just remember him. We
should follow his principles in our day to day life."
