  1. Write a critical analysis on the plight of Dalits with regard to the following lines:

We fought with crows,
Never even giving them the snot from our noses.
As we dragged out the Upper Lane’s dead cattle,
Skinned it neatly
And shared the meat among ourselves,
They used to love us then.
We warred with jackals–dogs–vultures–kites
Because we ate their share… Would you wipe the sweat from your bony body
With your mother’s ragged sari?
Would you work as a pimp
To keep her in booze?
O, father, oh, god the father!
You could never do such things.
One who toils in the dirt,
One who gives and gives of her love.
