Consider asking media to not use word 'Dalit': HC to Govt
The Bombay High Court has asked the Information and Broadcasting Ministry to consider asking the media to not use the word 'Dalit' within the next six weeks. This comes after the Social Justice and Empowerment Ministry advised central and state governments to avoid using the word 'Dalit' in all communications and instead use the phrase 'person belonging to Scheduled Caste'.
