The last decade saw the emergence andassertion of separate Dalitbahajun women`s organizations both at the nationaland regional levels. This assertion against their exclusion from political andcultural spheres sought to transform Dalit and feminist politics in India. Inthe same decade, anti-Madal protests saw upper caste youth mourning the `deathof merit` and publicly endorsing endogamy. The reproduction of caste in modernspaces like universities, bureaucracies and women`s movements and studies wasthus apparent. The assumptions about caste identities being private and personalwere called into question and serious challenges posed for understanding casteand gender in contemporary India.
