160 million people in India are born outside the four castes of the Varna system - the oldest surviving social hierarchy of the world.

They are called the "untouchables"

They thermselves have chosen the name DALITS (broken people).

  • K.R. Narayanan was the first person from the dalit community to become the President of India. Inspite of being a University rank holder, Narayanan was denied a teaching post in the university because of him being a dalit. He completed his Masters in London School Of Economics and came back to India to join the Indian Foreign Service. He was considered by many, including Jawaharlal Nehru as the finest diplomat the country has ever seen.

  • Narayanan grew up in abject poverty and misery but he went on to become the President of the (so called) Largest democracy in the world. This happened much before Americans( who got independence much before India) elected a black president. It was his sheer will power and fighting spirit together with un-matched brilliance that lead him to such hights. There was nobody to help, nobody to support, nobody to encourage, but just himself. Hats off!!
