Abstract
Historically Dalit women were actively involved in the anti-caste and anti-untouchability movements. Today they are the strongholds of the Dalit Movements in thousands of Indian villages. They continue to play a crucial role in the movements for land rights and movements against liquor in many parts of the country. They are making their mark as independent thinkers and writers in the literary world and visionary leaders in the Panchayati Raj institutions.
