THIS IS NOT DENIAL — THIS IS A DEMAND FOR REAL JUSTICE

Let this be said clearly, without hesitation or dilution: caste-based atrocities are real, brutal, and historically undeniable. Anyone pretending otherwise is lying to society and to themselves.

But truth has more than one responsibility.
It must acknowledge past horrors and prevent new injustices from being committed in their name.

Justice that abandons fairness ceases to be justice. It becomes powerful when wearing moral clothing.

🩸 WITNESSED, NOT HEARD — THE REALITY OF ATROCITY

This is not theoretical outrage. It is a lived memory.

Dalits are forced to live on the village outskirts.
Slurs like chooda and chamaar are used casually, without shame.

Human beings are made to sit on the floor when entering others’ homes — not out of respect, but humiliation.

Children may not understand such cruelty when they first see it, but adulthood removes all doubt: this was inhuman, unjust, and indefensible.

Such behaviour deserves no social excuse, but severe punishment — then and now.

⚖️ NO AMBIGUITY: ATROCITIES DESERVE zero TOLERANCE

Let there be no confusion.
Anyone practicing caste discrimination today — openly or subtly — deserves the full force of the law.

Caste cruelty is not culture.

It is not a tradition.
It is not “complex.”

It is a crime against human dignity.

🧠 THE PRESENT IS NOT THE PAST — AND THAT MATTERS

Here is the uncomfortable truth many refuse to confront:

The overwhelming majority of present-day GC and OBC families neither practice nor support caste discrimination.

Yet the current social and legal climate increasingly assumes inherited guilt — that birth itself is evidence of criminal intent.

This is neither moral nor rational.

Justice cannot function on ancestry-based suspicion. That logic mirrors the very mindset it claims to oppose.

🚨 COLLECTIVE GUILT IS NOT SOCIAL REFORM

You cannot morally justify harassing a generation for crimes it did not commit.

Holding individuals accountable for actions they neither performed nor endorsed does not heal historical wounds — it creates new ones.

When justice turns into vengeance, the moral high ground collapses.
When reform turns into revenge, reconciliation becomes impossible.

🏛️ LAW MUST PUNISH CRIME — NOT ENABLE MISUSE

This is why supporting the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and demanding safeguards against misuse are not contradictions — they are complements.

Punish the guilty without mercy.

Protect the innocent without hesitation.

A law that cannot distinguish between the two fails its own purpose.

The same principle applies to academic and institutional frameworks governed by the University Grants Commission. Regulation must uplift the marginalised without turning fairness into collateral damage.

🔁 OVERCORRECTION IS STILL INJUSTICE

History demands correction — not retaliation.

True justice works through:

• Institutional reform

• Equal opportunity

• Restoration of dignity

• Fair and evidence-based accountability

• 
  

Not through perpetual hostility that freezes society in endless conflict.

A system that replaces one injustice with another learns nothing from history.

🧨 FINAL WORD: JUSTICE MUST HEAL — NOT HARDEN

Condemning caste atrocities is non-negotiable.
Rejecting collective guilt is equally essential.

If the fight against discrimination abandons fairness, it will lose legitimacy — and eventually, its soul.

India does not need justice that divides generations.

It needs justice that punishes crimes, protects innocents, and allows reconciliation to breathe.

Anything less is not progress.

It is an injustice to wear a different uniform.
