Indian grievances in South Africa

Show comments

THOUGH many of the grievances of Indians in South Africa have been settled, we fear there are yet some left unsettled and others about which practical steps are not taken, Indian Opinion, dated December 30, 1914, gives an instance of an Indian schoolmaster boarding a tramcar at Durban being insulted by the conductor because he was a blackman. On the representation of the matter to the proper authorities, he obtained redress by the conductor apologising in writing. But it seems that many Indians in humbler positions get no redress whatever and are subjected to unjust and arrogant treatment in public places.
