        abstract = {Datta Bhagat is a prominent figure in Marathi literature, particularly known for his contributions to Dalit theatre. His plays, deeply rooted in the Dalit experience, challenge the social structures that perpetuate caste-based discrimination. This research article explores the thematic concerns, narrative techniques, and socio-political implications of Bhagat’s works, focusing on his most influential play, Wata Palwata (Routes and Crossroads). The study also discusses Bhagat’s role in shaping Dalit drama and his influence on contemporary theatre movements.},
