Abstract | The Dalit movement in India has played a pivotal role in challenging the socio-economic and political inequalities faced by marginalized communities, particularly in the context of the caste system. This paper focuses on the Dalit movement in the Hyderabad State during the early to mid-20th century, with a particular emphasis on the contributions and leadership of Bhagya Reddy Varma. As one of the foremost leaders advocating for the rights and dignity of Dalits, Varma's efforts were instrumental in galvanizing a collective identity among Dalit communities. The study examines the socio-political landscape of Hyderabad State, highlighting key events such as the formation of the Scheduled Castes Federation and the struggles faced by Dalits against oppressive practices. Through a critical analysis of Varma's writings, speeches, and organizational strategies, this paper aims to elucidate the dynamics of the Dalit movement in a regional context, offering insights into the intersection of caste, class, and politics. The findings underscore the significance of grassroots leadership and mobilization in advancing the cause of social justice. Ultimately, this case study of Bhagya Reddy Varma not only contributes to the historical understanding of the Dalit movement in Hyderabad but also provides valuable lessons for contemporary struggles against caste-based discrimination. |
