After India gained independence in 1947, the government introduced a number of reforms to protect the rights of dalits, or lower cast Indians. The Constitution of India, which was adopted in 1950, prohibited discrimination based on caste and granted equal rights to all citizens. Over the years, several laws were passed to ensure that dalits were protected from discrimination, such as the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. However, discrimination against dalits persists in many parts of India, and there is still work to be done to achieve true equality.
