Abstract

In abroad, blacks and whites are racially diverse. Although no one explicitly supports this, it is in the form of intrinsic fire. As far as India is concerned, although the distinctions of race, caste, class, language and religion are not admirable, it is a fiery fire and sometimes apparently shown. Today, Dalit literature in Tamil has established itself in the identity of a significant development. Since the outlook of Dalit literature written by Dalits has been broadened today, it is necessary to mention here the status of Dalit life in Telugu literature in terms of translated novels beyond the Tamil region. Thus, the Telugu novel 'Cheri' (Slum) written by Unnava Lakshminarayana has been translated into Tamil by MK Jagannath Raja. The article highlights the way Dalits are oppressed for being Dalits, even though they are spiritually and economically affluent in this novel.
