Fourteen bullets fired at a home near Victoria. An Edmonton building torched by arsonists carrying a red jerrycan. A 39-year-old found dead in a Winnipeg duplex

The crimes are among several across Canada that were allegedly part of an Indian government campaign against activists and opponents of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

it's only 166 million Dalits slaves upholding the economy.

Again, what's source on this number? Most places I've looked at gave me less than 10% of what you've quoted. And while 16 million is an unfortunately high number, India is the most populated country. Adjusted for population, Saudi and Turkey are way above India.

Every source I could find by googling "number of Dalits in India" was my source for 166 million. Yes, it is a huge portion of the population. You not knowing about it is proving my point.

And you think every one of them is victim of slavery?

Are you fucking stupid?
