 India is celebrating the 125th birth anniversary of Ambedkar this year. The build-up to UP elections is being keenly followed by political pundits. BSP , under the leadership of Mayawati, is among the two frontrunners --BJP being the other -to replace the ruling SP. But in a new book, Narayan points out that about 30%-40% of the smaller communities among Dalits in UP remain invisible to state, political parties, even academics. “Dalit communities or sub-castes are marginalised. They haven't even acquired the capacity to aspire, acquire a decent life and a share in democracy,“ he says in the book, `Fractured Tales: Invisibles in Democracy'.

		+	[https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/sunday-times/bhim-rap-to-dalit-pop/articleshow/67211247.cms Ketaki Desai, Bhim rap to Dalit pop: How the music of protest is thriving, December 23, 2018: ''The Times of India'']
		+
		+
		+	“I am the Eklavya of these times, my archery is hip-hop, the words erupting in my mind are turning into arrows,” raps Sumeet Samos in Odia. He goes on: “This time, the fingers won’t be cut, these arrows will instead pierce this very society, disturb its stability”. Samos, a Delhi-based Dalit rapper, brings up issues rarely heard in the mainstream music industry — from a song about the Kandhamal riots of 2008, to a critique of the limited vocabulary around reservations: “All you know is five words: Dalit, merit, caste, Ambedkar, reservation,” goes the catchy chorus.
		+
		+	Samos, who raps in English, Hindi and Odia, feels the mainstream music industry thinks of Dalit artists only as folk artists. “I wanted to show them that we’re more than that,” says the 26-year-old, who is one of many young musicians taking on caste in genres like extreme heavy metal and pop.
		+
		+	Ginni Mahi, 20, describes her music as part pop, part hip-hop, and part devotional hymns. The Jalandhar girl shot into the spotlight three years ago after her hits Fan Baba Sahib Di, Danger and Danger 2 racked up millions of views on YouTube. Mahi was hailed as belonging to the sub-genre of ‘chamar pop’, because of the lyrics that turn a slur into a badge of pride. “People use the word ‘chamar’ in a derogatory and discriminatory way. I want to sing about equality and breaking down barriers as much as possible,” says Mahi, who regularly performs at live shows.
		+
		+	Meanwhile, The Casteless Collective takes ‘gaana’, an indigenous genre popular among the working class of north Madras, and makes it world music. Comprising 19 members, the collective was the brainchild of filmmaker Pa. Ranjith. The group includes diverse music-makers, from ‘gaana’ artists to rappers from Mumbai’s Dharavi slum. The group sees itself as a “political awareness outfit,” taking on matters of Dalit identity, issues like beef-eating, manual scavenging and the idea of a modern-day Ambedkar, and also LGBT rights and feminism. “If you see a video about manual scavenging, it might not affect you. But, if a manual scavenger is the one singing a song about his life to you, that’s powerful,” says Tenma, 30, who leads the band.
		+
		+	Samos sees his music as an extension of his activism. “In 2016, Rohith Vemula committed suicide and I was involved in the student protest. It pushed me to do something.” That’s where rap came in.
		+
		+	“Growing up in Odisha’s Koraput district, I experienced direct kinds of discrimination. There were segregated colonies, your school and access to water were determined by your caste identity,” he says. At JNU, however, he began to see more indirect forms of discrimination such as being denied opportunities at seminars despite being the course topper and feeling patronised by professors “like they’re giving us charity”.
		+
		+	Music is a very effective means of liberation and protest because “it works more subtly to transmit messages,” says Dr Zoe Sherinian, professor of Ethnomusicology and author of Tamil Folk Music as Dalit Liberation. Genres like rock and rap, she says, are good urban equivalents to the traditional folk forms that Dalit liberation has used. “Rap music especially can be performed with just vocals accompanied by beats. If the music remains technically accessible and participatory, young Dalit musicians can use these genres, as well as contemporary folk styles like gaana in Tamil Nadu, to unify young people in their struggles against caste, class, and gender oppression”.
		+
		+	The name of Kerala-based death metal band Willuwandi translates to ‘bullock cart’, a reference to the solo revolt by activist Mahatma Ayyankali in Kerala in 1893, when he drove a bullock cart through a public road, wearing a turban, at a time when the oppressed castes were not allowed to be seen in public places. The band hopes to “to wake up Dalits and backward castes” with its music, says its frontman, Sethu Willuwandi. “We want to motivate people. Inspiration only changes thoughts, but motivation changes actions,” he says.
		+
		+	Samos feels inspired by the sense of community that has come from his music. “When I started doing this, young Dalit people from all over the country started messaging me, telling me how they related to my music.”
		+
		+	Mahi, too, has received immense support from the Dalit community, but she wants the socially dominant to pay attention too. “I sing for everyone — so we can end the caste system and break barriers. It isn’t enough for just my community to hear my message of equality,” she says.

 Indpaedia searched [https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=bhim+geete&page=1 YouTube] for the most popular Bheem Geete. It would, of course, be unfair to compare the number of times a song posted six years was viewed with one posted only a month or two before this chart was prepared (towards the end of May 2015).
