The term Dalit Christian (sometimesChristian Dalit) is used to describe those low-caste who have converted to Christianity from Hinduism or Islam and are still categorized as Dalits in Hindu, Christian and Islamic societies in IndiaPakistan and other countries. Hindu Dalits are referred to as "Harijans" while the Islamic Dalits are categorised as "Muhajir" or "Arzal". After conversion, people in India lose any privileges they had in their former caste, while those in lower castes often gain more status but lose many privileges.[2] Since Christianity is theoretically without castes, this is a controversial issue in India, where about 70% of the Christians are Dalits
