When Sonia appointed a Dalit as the nation's chief justice, it was hailed. Now it turns out that he was corrupt to the core. The indications were always there - he refused to put assets online, he called a high court judge who did put his assets online a publicity hound, he dilly-dallied on another corrupt judge PD Dinakaran.
Another Dalit - A Raja is accused on orchestrating India's largest scam ever. The Dalit queen, Mayawati, herself an epitome of inefficiency and corruption.
India created reservation laws to lift the Dalits from centuries of slavery & to provide them with equal rights. Now, it seems all of that was to merely give rights to be equally corrupt. It is like as if someone is proving a point - We can do as well as you at least in corruption. What is more shameful is they use their being Dalits as a defense!
That is not to say everyone who is a Dalit is corrupt or inefficient - merely noting the notables.
