If Manual scavenging, banned in India since 1993, persists due to caste discrimination, poverty, neglect, and weak enforcement. Lack of data and open dialogue hides the scale of the problem. Threshold, an atypical publication, addresses these realities through Vocalization (stories), Perceptions (facts), and Actions (future steps). Combining narratives with data, it focuses on fostering empathy, challenging biases, and calls for dialogue, dignity, and collective responsibility toward ending this human rights crisis.
