An appeal
on behalf of
the Dalit students
I am a writer
from Kerala and doing some research in the Tamil Nadu State Archives at
Chennai. Recently I chanced to face with a wonderful and pitiable fact
regarding to the Dalit students who are conducting their M. Phil research . The
unpleasant information I received from one of my co-researchers is that the
above students get only Rs. 6000 for a whole year as the scholarship from the
State Govt. ! I can’t understand how my
co-researcher , who is a young woman coming from a poor Dalit family in the
southern- most part of the State and staying in a hostel by paying Rs. 4200 per
month as the rent, can complete her course of research . I assume that she
leads a day-to-day life of somewhat poverty so as to unable to purchase even
some ordinary medicines for her disease. In this situation her helplessness is
ascending to its peak when she tries to imagine a small laptop computer to be
purchased for the immediate use in her research. ( My friends in this research hall inform me
that , to each of the school children in Tamil Nadu the
State Govt . is presenting a Laptop as a
gift . ) Here we must receive a bit of
information from the other side of the Western Ghats. Yes, the sisters and brothers of our unlucky
girl, the Dalit M. Phil students of Kerala , are getting , as I am hearing from
my friends in Kerala , a comparatively huge
amount equal to 24 times higher
than the one she receives, that is Rs. 12,000 per month, from the State Govt. !
Within the 7 months of my staying in
Chennai I could realize that this State is really a “ Land of Charity “ . I am
lucky to notice that , from the kind-hearted Chief Minister comes several acts
for the benefit of the poor “ Makkal “.
Then , if our beloved “ Amma “ opens her eyes of charity to this unfortunate M. Phil students coming from the downtrodden
Dalit families , there will not any
opposition in the way of allowing an honest scholarship to them.
