The  priests  in  Southern  India  seek  ways  to  find  out  appropriate  policies  to  enhance  and  empower  Dalit  Catholics  all  over  India  under  Catholic  Bishops  Conference  Of  India  (CBCI). The  workshop  which  was  held  in  Bangalore  on  2nd  July  2017,  organized  under  CBCI  mainly  focused  on  bringing  out  and  implementing  powerful  policies  for  the  rights  of  the  Dalit  Catholics.

CBCI  took  the  initiative  to  bring  the  Catholic  priests  in  southern  India  together  to  act  for  this  social  cause.  Representatives  from  Andhra Pradesh,  Karnataka,  Kerala,  Pondicherry,  Tamil Nadu,  Telangana  joined  the  workshop  and  had  a  healthy  discussion  for  the  welfare  of  the  Dalit  Catholics  of  India.  A  significant  mission  was  to  train  experts  to  go  around  the  country  and  make  the  priests  and  the  people  understand  about  the  various  policies  which  have  been  listed  for their  welfare.  As  reported  by  ucanindia.in,  Fr. Cosmon  Arockiaraj, the  former  Secretary  of  CBCI  told  that  “The  diocese  or  region  should  not  follow  the  piecemeal l approach  while  preparing  the  action  plan  by  announcing certain  welfare  schemes.”

The  Commission  Secretaries  of  Regional  and  Diocese  participated  in  the  workshop.  CBCI hopes  to  bring  out  the  best  facilities  for  the  Dalit  Catholics  in  the  country  by  the  policies.
