it has been organizing meetings and public talks on the issues related with
the Dalit community both inside university campuses and outside. One of the
prime objectives of INSIGHT group has been to create a platform where Dalit
students can share their views and are also able to interact with scholars,
academicians, activists, organizations that have been working on the issues
related with the Dalit community*.

     *Towards this objective, we have formed a Study Circle that will
organize a meeting on any one particular issue on the First Sunday of every

professionals and researchers  on one platform to interact with each other.
We encourage young Dalit students/researchers to share their work with us
