Ever since the onset of discourses around environment protection in India, different perspectives have come up to evaluate our natural environment. Nevertheless, even in their totality, they fail to provide a complete picture of the environmental struggles in India. This is partly because the ‘the Dalit perspective’ remains missing from the tales of ‘environmentalism’ that India has seen in the recent past. In India, there has been a complete subjugation of the Dalit perspective from the mainstream environmental discourses. So far as this subjugation goes, it is far from innocent and has a strong socio-political undercurrent, which creates a hegemonic structure within which the Indian Dalit loses his voice altogether. The authors, through the medium of this article, have made attempts to discover the forces which are at work in obliterating the Dalit perspectives from mainstream environmental discourse. The authors have tried to answer the questions that have characterized the subjugation in many different ways: Whether the missing of Dalits narratives is due to the monopolization of the discourses by the ‘upper caste’ and upper-class writings in India? The article will inquire how much truth is there in such allegations. More so, some light will be thrown on the structural framework of environment protection, and find answers as to how the structure of ‘environmental movements’ in India alienate the Dalits from actively participating in it. Further, the authors seek to unravel the politics of identity in India and how it affects the environment protection and subjugate the Dalit narrative. This will be done by taking into account some prominent Dalit symbols which have become tools for suppression by the state to cause the death of any resistance that comes from within the marginalized Dalit population of India. This article is solely an academic enquiry into the dialectical relationship that exists between the Dalits, the caste politics and the environments. The aim is to determine the reasons and consequences of subjugation and alienation of the Dalits from the environmental discourse.

自从有关环境保护的讨论在印度开始出现以来，已经出现了不同的观点来评估我们的自然环境。然而，即使从整体上看，它们也无法全面反映印度的环境斗争。部分原因是印度在最近的“环境主义”故事中仍然缺少“达利特主义观点”。在印度，从主流的环境论述中，已经完全否定了达利特的观点。就这种征服而言，它远非无辜，并且具有强烈的社会政治暗流，这形成了霸权结构，印度达利特人在其中完全失去了发言权。作者通过本文的媒介，试图从主流环境话语中发现消除达力特观点的力量。作者试图以许多不同的方式来回答表征征服的问题：达利特人叙事的缺失是否是由于印度“上层阶级”和上层阶级著作对话语的垄断？本文将询问这些指控中有多少真相。更重要的是，人们将对环境保护的结构框架有所了解，并找到关于印度“环境运动”的结构如何使达利特人无法积极参与其中的答案。此外，作者试图揭示印度的身份政治及其对环境保护的影响，并服从达利特的叙述。这将通过考虑一些突出的达利特符号来实现，这些符号已成为国家压制的工具，以致使来自边缘化的达利特印度人口内部的任何抵抗活动死亡。本文仅是对达利特人，种姓政治与环境之间存在的辩证关系的学术研究。目的是确定环境话语对达利特人的屈服和疏远的原因和后果。种姓政治和环境。目的是确定环境话语对达利特人的屈服和疏远的原因和后果。种姓政治和环境。目的是确定环境话语对达利特人的屈服和疏远的原因和后果。
