Omprakash Valmiki
“भारतीय समाज की क्रूर–व्यवस्था व्यक्ति की योग्यता को नकार रही थी। उनकी दृष्टि में डॉ. अम्बेडकर जन्मना महार थे। भले ही उनकी विद्वत्ता आकाश जितनी ऊँचाई पा जाए।”
Omprakash Valmiki, जूठन: पहला खंड [Joothan]

Abhi Subedi
“दलित विषयका तथ्य र विषयलाई उजागर गर्नेमा प्राज्ञिक अध्येता, गैसस र राष्ट्रसङ्घीय एकाइहरू रहे । त्यो पद्धति परोक्ष हो, व्याख्याका हिसाबले । त्यो पद्धतिले दलित समस्या राम्ररी बुझ्न सकिन्छ । तर, यो प्रपञ्चको रूपमा रह्यो भने यही नै फेरि दलितलाई अदृश्यकरण गर्ने अर्को एउटा सञ्जालको रूपमा विकसित हुन सक्छ ।”
Abhi Subedi
