When we discuss women, we discuss the difference between cultural women and constitutional women or we can say that how many cultural women are transformed to constitutional women. In the same way the word “DALIT” has also a cultural evolution with different notion like ardhnagn, asprashya, untouchable, Dalit, Harijan and finally they are defined as Dalit in 1935. In cultural frame these people are never treated as equal as twice born people. Culturally these people are deprived of basic necessities which are overcoming by the process of reservation. Dalit women are at the bottom in the community. Within the women’s movement, Dalit issues have not been taken seriously. Within the Dalit movement, women have been ignored. Caste, class, and gender need to be looked at together. This book analyses various aspects of this subject. The book will be highly useful to students and teachers.
