💨 Abstract

Sunita, a Dalit woman from Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, converted to Buddhism after facing caste-based violence. She and her family became isolated, with no access to community resources. This reflects the resistance faced by those who leave the Hindu fold. A mass conversion event in October 2022 sparked controversy over the 22 vows, including renouncing Hindu gods.
