Product Description

This book explores the history, ethnography and liberation journey of an aboriginal, forest-dwelling hunting tribe, which was reduced to servitude by the Aryan Conquest of the Indian Subcontinent. They were called chandala in classical Brahmanic Literature and are designated as Chuhra in the censuses of India (1868-1931). In Contemporary Pakistan, they are known as Punjabi Christians. The book explores their primarily tribal rather than occupational nature, their homeland and their spread through the Indian Subcontinent
