In a short interview with The Wire's Faiyaz Ahmed Wajeeh, author of Bharat Ke Dalit Musalmaan Ayub Rayeen describes the state of a Dalit Muslim in India. Dr Rayeen sheds light on the deep caste divides in the Indian Muslim community and says that when Dalit Muslims in India, a doubly marginalised community, are not granted basic dignity in India, how can they manage to gather relevant documents for BJP government's proposed nationwide National Register of Citizens (NRC)? In this interview, he talks about excerpts from his book too.
