There is an emergency to respond pandemic of COVID-19. This situation poses a serious public health risk particularly economically poor communities such as Dalit Arunthathiyars and tribal in Salem District. Their lives are drastically different today than were few weeks ago. Everyone has been restricted to move free and do their daily work. They lost their livelihoods, they are in need of food support for their children and basic health care. We need support to save the community.
In our region most of the population belongs to Dalit Arunthathiyar community. They are illiterate and landless. They highly depend on daily work wages for their livelihoods. Poverty and illiteracy engendered by the deep-rooted discrimination alienate them from mainstream.
