Answer 1

Both these groups mainly fought against the perpetual caste-based inequalities and material injuries that Dalits faced in spite of constitutional guarantees of equality and justice and Dalits faced collective atrocities over minor symbolic issues of caste pride.   

Explanation:

Dalit Panthers was a militant Dalit Youth organisation founded in Maharashtra in 1972:

1. These organisations primarily battled against the Dalits' ongoing caste-based disparities and material injustices, despite constitutional guarantees of equality and justice.
2. Dalits were subjected to collective atrocities over small symbolic caste pride issues. As a result, they requested that reservations and other social justice laws be implemented effectively.
