End of intra-caste discrimination demanded

Added At: 2011-03-22 9:28 AM

KALIKOT: People from 'non-Dalit' communities in Kalikot district have
urged to end the caste based discrimination among the Dalit
communities to maintain social harmony.

Speaking at a programme organised in Kalikot on Monday on the occasion
of 46th International Day for the Elimination of Racial
Discrimination, the leaders of the Dalit movement also complained that
the organisations established for the welfare of Dalit communities
were not actually working for their living standards promotion.

Meanwhile, five persons including Dalit rights activists were honored
amid a function in Dhadingbensi on Monday for their contribution to
eliminate the racial discrimination.

Dalit rights activists Ram Bahadur Basel, Kulman Kumal and Gopal BK,
journalist Keshav Adhikari and advocate Hari Prasad Silwal
(posthumously) were felicitated for their contribution to the Dalit
movement.

On the occasion, central vice chairman of Dalit Sewa Sangh Dhan
Bahadur Nepali honored them and urged to work actively against racial
discrimination in the future as well.
