Focusing on the historical and social evolution of dalits in India, the book explores the origins of the caste system and its transformation during the colonial era. It highlights Babasaheb Ambedkar's pivotal role in shaping the dalit movement and examines its decline after his time. Key contemporary issues addressed include the emergence of the Bahujan Samaj Party, the rise of dalit capitalism, the influence of NGOs on dalit discourse, and the effects of neoliberalism on the community.
