Abstract

In the last few decades Dalit literature has emerged as a new voice on the horizon of Indian literature. In fact, Dalit literature has emerged a literature which tries to change the society. Dalits have been marginalized only on the basis of their worth, they were assigned a few professions and were not allowed to leave those professions under any circumstances. Thus the diabolic system wasted many talents, many people who were capable of doing greater things were not allowed to come out of the vicious circle of the caste system. The current paper studies the issues which are integral to Dalit literature.
