The suspected honour killing of a Dalit man Shankar in Tamil Nadu may have caused uproar in India, but this is only the latest case of caste-based violence in a state with a history of Dalit oppression.

Mr Muthu in Sydney, Mr Mugunth in Brisbane, Ms Selvi in Sydney and Mr Mahizhan in Gold Coast discuss the issue. Facilitator: Raysel
