Talk:Caste-related violence in India

message: I removed this section, since according to the links given, this is not a crime instigated by caste issues. This was not a case of lower-caste people being massacred by upper-caste people. It was an incident triggered by religious (and not caste) sentiments -- some extremist Hindus who regard cows as sacred killed people who were skinning a cow. utcursch | talk 11:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Attacks on Dalits at Jhajjar, Haryana 

message: I modified this section considerably -- the last paragraph especially seems to have been written by a very casteist person with a clear anti-Dalit bias. The major issues I had with it are: Theories concerning these crimes against Dalits range from "alcohol bootleggers opposing prohibition movements among Dalits" to "inter-caste relations between an upper-caste Vanniya boy and a Dalit girl". -- this does not have a citation.
In the next paragraph we have a statement that violence against Brahmins was systematically encouraged by Periyar -- nowhere in the Outlook article linked as a citation does it state that violence against Brahmins was systematically encouraged by Periyar Ramaswami. 
The next sentence doesn't seem to go anywhere and seems merely an excuse to throw in a link to an article about the Hindu Munnani party (which I have never heard of before). It seems to be a bit much to cite that the DMK is an anti-Hindu party by linking to an article about an opposition party claiming that the DMK is an anti-Hindu party. The same sentence fragment states that the rise to power of the DMK party resulted in discrimination against upper-castes in TN. He/she also talks about the "canard" of Brahmin oppression as though Brahmin oppression of the lower castes wasn't true. The poster seems to be prescribe to a very narrow view of Hinduism = Brahminism. 
Next we have the weasel-worded construction of many Brahmins claim that many Brahmins... I think this whole sentence is obviously problematic. The last sentence of the paragraph is also similarly weasel-worded: Some people have stated...

thread_title:  Tamil Nadu 

message: Why would this article be of low importance? This is POV of high class hindus who think that violence against Dalits is not really important. Furthermore, those same Indians should know that by the western standards, all Indians are dalits, since they drink the filthy water of River Ganges. 189.96.245.39 (talk) 15:31, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Low importance? 

message: Articles such as these are very biased since they are based on selective choice of incidences. Only violence against the so called Dalit is shown disregarding all other violence against other castes. Special:Contributions (User talk) 03:50, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: This is because dalits have sympathy today it is being used as an opportunity by selfish persons and groups to benefit themselves. Other violence is mostly neglected or reported as general crime, while that on dalit is highlighted. This is due to political and other gains of such persons and dalits are a easy prey for those causes. These violences when studied systematically show that all the castes and religions undergo similar cases in india.(User talk) 03:55, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Dalits should understand what is going on in the country and getout of such bias. Individual empowerment and freedom is more important than caste related issues. There is a danger that if the dalits once they lose the sympathy for what ever reason could get into more trouble than today. They should not try to play with the country by acting as opportunistic only for their cause. Equality is more important for everyone.(User talk) 03:58, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Dalits and others have a golden opportunity in creating equality and they should not lose it for short term needs and think in terms of long term needs of all. Here the case should not become as if oppressed become oppressors and politicians use it to once again push them to backwardness. Remember that politicians are ready to utilize any issue to their benefit brainwashing people saying that they are working for that community. They can very well switch their sides very easily. Here historians have done a bad work of instigating many communities as if they have seen everything that went on in the past and are painting a very wrong picture of the history. This will one day backfire and many communities will have to pay the price for none of their mistakes. Mistakes should be corrected not repeated. 27.61.167.151 (talk) 03:58, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

message: Hi Wiki Users/Editors,
I would like to order the page based on the dates
I would prefer a format of YYYY Village, District, State. In case of casualties, specify that along with deaths if any. The heading from the sub page would have been apt.
Please share your thoughts.

replies: text: I'm not entirely sure that this page should be rejigged, I'd rather that it's completely rewritten with a better structure. Introduction, Type (there are specific issues at play here inter-caste issues leading to a contained fight between just two groups, within caste violations instigated by the Khap panchayats etc -- like the marriage issue in Haryana, one group against the rest and so on), significant instances, legal and political solutions or lack thereof. This may be a starting point. —SpacemanSpiff 18:59, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ordering the Page 

message: This article either should be renamed caste-violence against dalits( which is not caste but socially oppressed section), or it should also includes violence among other castes like anti-brahmin riots in Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu, gurjar violence in western UP and among different castes! Although I know only Upper-lower seems to come into much spook but there is also lots of upper-upper and lower-lower conflicts! ( My name is Pandey and I'm not a Castist :P ) Pratpandey13 (talk)
