About The Book
“Vimuktayan” is a powerful, research-driven work by acclaimed author Laxman Mane, offering a deeply analytical and empathetic exploration of the nomadic and denotified tribes of Maharashtra. This important volume is a landmark contribution to Dalit and tribal literature, foregrounding communities that have long been marginalized, misunderstood, and misrepresented.
Divided into four well-structured chapters, the book navigates through the following themes:
-
Historical Background: A comprehensive overview of the social and cultural history of denotified tribes, tracing their historical roots, transitions, and the effects of colonial legislation.
-
Struggles of Nomadic Tribes: A stark and unfiltered portrayal of the daily life, oppression, and resistance experienced by tribes once branded as ‘criminal’ under British rule.
-
Socio-Economic Realities: A detailed analysis of caste traditions, marriage systems, caste panchayats, widow remarriage, and the economic challenges faced by these communities in post-independence Maharashtra.
-
Policy and Future: A critical look at government measures, the rising influence of caste-based councils, and suggestions for sustainable upliftment and inclusion.
Enhanced with appendices, maps, caste-wise data tables, and meticulous documentation, this book is not just academic—it is a voice for the voiceless. Mane’s narrative compassionately captures the emotional and social psyche of communities struggling to free themselves from the "barbed fence" of historical injustice and contemporary neglect.
Why You Should Read This Book:
-
Essential reading for those studying sociology, anthropology, public policy, or human rights
-
A valuable reference for policy makers, researchers, and social workers
-
A poignant, heartfelt account that bridges academic research with lived realities
“Vimuktayan” is not just a book—it is a call for social awareness, justice, and collective healing.
