Ramnad Dalits Expelled

Meenakshipuram has rocked the Mindu sanatanists. From North come hordes of Hindu religious leaders and religio- political leaders, to the South to exhort Hindus against conversion. In three districts, Tirunelveli, Madurai and Ramanathapuram, “Harijans” embraced Islam. Still the process is going on. In Ramnad, the Government had filed criminal cases only against untouchables. They are on conditional bail in far off places-a cruel punishment. They find no food or support there. In Salem District also untouchables have threatened to join the stream of conversion. Around Madras some thousands of untouchables have decided to join Budhism.
