Title : Caste, Climate and Conflict

Paper not uploaded by the author

Abstract : Water scarcity in India, exacerbated by climate change and unsustainable groundwater extraction, poses significant challenges to equitable access, particularly for marginalized communities such as Dalits. This paper examines the interplay between resource scarcity and inter-caste conflict, focusing on how water shortages influence social dynamics in a highly stratified society.
