INDIA Indian Dalit was brutally attacked by members of higher castes. They surrounded him in a circle and beat him with punches, kicks, and sticks. It is not known what preceded the incident.
Dalit is a social or caste designation for people placed at the very bottom of the Hindu caste hierarchy. Dalits are often subjected to discrimination and forced to perform socially stigmatized work. Although the Indian government is trying to combat the caste system, it is deeply rooted in many people, and according to some estimates, this struggle will continue for several more generations.
