India Untouched - stories of a people apart

INDIA UNTOUCHED will make it impossible for anyone in India to deny that Untouchability is still practiced today. In an age where the media projects only one image of a 'rising' or 'poised' India, this film reminds us how far the country is from being an equal society.
Travelling through eight states and four religions, this film is perhaps the deepest exploration of caste oppression ever undertaken on film.
Directed by Stalin K.
Produced by DRISHTI Media, Arts & Human Rights
Presented by Navsarjan

@MrMiyanbhai Kafir is not just non-muslim when mulsim refer to Kafir . Kafir means uncivilized..whatever untouchability has nothing to do with religion..its state of mind..and its in every culture ..why gympsies of europe or South sudanese black christians are treated in same way as Indian dalits? So christianity or islam is answer for untouchability in India is bullshit..untouchability goes away with dignity of labor...

[gandaav4]

@MrMiyanbhai But call all other kafir...

@howimfeelinglike - everyone is treated like that by Arabs. And don't worry about that because they are not even the real Arabs.

SWAMI VIVEKANANDA THE IKON TEACHER OF MODERN INDIA WAS NOT OF THE HIGHEST CASTE. NEITHER HIM OR HIS MASTER SRI RAMAKRISHNA PRAMAHAMSA CARED FOR THE CASTE SYSTEM AND IGNORED IT COMPLETELY IN THEIR TEACHINGS AND THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF DISCIPLES.

ITS TIME FOR INDIA TO FOLLOW THEIR EXAMPLES !!!

I've always found it amazing how the word "untouchable" can mean two such completely different things in India and America. This made me very sad.

@MrMiyanbhai ur statement is wrong. Islam came to India, flourished in India just because of Mughul Empire. Don't divert the issue.

I do accept Christianity is growing to remove untouchability in India. I consider, Christianity is much better option for Dalits. neither Islam nor Hindusim never does so aggressive reformation as Christianity. Here, my point is not religion, I am talking about poor & poverty. I can trash or accept any religion any number of times for a good cause.

[tgirlgo]

this treatment is due to the caste system afer the Aryans took control the countries economic and social system were completely reastablished in where the darker people called the Untouchables became the lower class. It reminds me of the of wat slavery was like amodern day slavery.

@MrMiyanbhai

fucking bullshit. Arab Muslims practice untouchability against converted dalits.

I'm a dalit Muslim living in India. We are treated worse than shit by Arab Muslims.

You are right. about 80% of muslims in India (and also Christians and Sikhs) are Dalits. these people were primarily escaping untouchability and other discriminations. but unfortunately, untouchability in various forms is rampant amongst Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jains and Budhists. See my full film to get a slice of the picture. Search Youtube for India Untouched and you will find it. [Stalin K]
