Pathmarajah,
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->2. I posted some months ago statistics on Crimes Against Dalits (which was trashed), where it showed that there were a quarter million such crimes in a 10 year period; of which about 12% resulted in murders. In a single year there were 8,000 such murders, while in the 1971 war we lost about 7,000 men and the Pakis somewhat more. We have no wars against Pakis now, yet each year dalits are being murdered. This is an unspoken ongoing war against dalits.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I dont remember - you can post that link again if you still have it. If it was posted in the hindu-law thread then its on the blogspot archive. You can look for it there.
Having said that let me post another statistic here and you can tell me what it means.

To me it looks like 1.77 million crimes in a YEAR (37 thousand murders) . that would mean 17.7 million in a DECADE by simple multiplication (also 370,000 murders). Out of those crimes you are saying qtr of million crimes against dalits (12% of qtr mill = 30K ?) constitutes a "unspoken ongoing war against dalits" ?
