Churches throughout India have been urged to hoist black flags on 10 August to protest against continued discrimination faced by Christian Dalits, people from low castes treated as untouchables, reports Ecumenical News International. The protest marks the 60th anniversary of the introduction of free education and reserved government jobs to improve the social status of Hindu Dalits. Such benefits were extended to Sikh Dalits in 1956 and then to Buddhist Dalits in 1990. However, Christian Dalits, who account for two thirds of some 28 million Christians in India, as well as Muslim Dalits, are denied these rights.
