After a long time, I got the opportunity to read Jaglya, a book from Marathi Dalit literature. Earlier, I had read Marathi Dalit autobiographies such as Uchlya, Joothan, Upara, Bhura, Kolhatyacha Por, and Baluta. I had issued the book Jaglya from my school library. This book has been written in Marathi by Daya Pawar and published by Mehta Publishing House. Dalit life, the caste system, and social contradictions are the main themes of this book.

Uchalya
Originally written in Marathi, Uchalya by Laxman Gaikwad presents a powerful narrative of struggle and survival. This review too was first written in Marathi by Aarav Raut, a Class 10 student. The English version here is a faithful translation to share the book’s essence and impact with a wider audience, while preserving its original voice and authenticity.
