Atrocities on Dalits Since the Partition of Bengal

Partition of Bengal on commual basis in the wake of independence of india brought complete disaster in the life of Dalits, particularly of those who belonged to Namasudra community, which by far outweighed of the displaced Hindus, who belonged to higher castes. The plight of Dalits in india, who were forced to flee to save their lives, leaving their heath and home, is no less than those who continued to stay in East Pakistan, risking their lives and properties.
