Dear Known, Show me the list of So called Dalit leaders like Paswan, Mayavati, Dr Ramadoss, Mulaym Singh etc and ask them the same question. How many of the so called leaders of the dalits have married them to their children. I am a brahmin and my cousins have married catholic, protestant, muslim, Kamath, Shetty, marwadi etc,, in fact my daughter will be marrying a mudaliar boy. The question of caste is only for the so called dalit leaders who do nothing but make a fool of their followers. Caste is something we should leave at home for praying,,the only recourse for uplift of the poor is EDUCATION, EDUCATION AND EDUCATION. Marriages will come autmatically out of education and intermingling. Nothing comes free my dear Known. Dont try to snatch things from others and say it is levelling. Earn it , then only u will know the value of it and can keep it my dear friend. Fight the government for education instead of reservations which is rightfully yours by the constitution and if all of you insist on schools in every village for votes, in one generation, you can remove your backwardness.
