Dalits in Dravidian Land: Frontline Reports on Anti-Dalit Violence in Tamil Nadu, 1995-2004

Says P. Sainath, "Perhaps no other journalist has tracked the dalit upsurge in Tamil Nadu from the mid-1990s as closely as S. Viswanathan of Frontline. Whether it is untouchability, structured discrimination, police atrocities or the growing alienation of the dalits from the Dravidian parties, the reporter has missed no great process, issue or event of the time."
