Perhaps the controversy was over the word "untouchable" rather than "Dalit"? There are some rather eye-popping suggested emendations surrounding "untouchable" in the report.

Are the author and the the report reliable? I searched the 477-page summary table report document of suggested revisions to Draft History-Social Science Framework (available from http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/cc/cd/documents/hsssummarypubcomments.doc). The word does not occur even once in the document. Then from where did the author pull this statement (italics mine): 


I meant to say The word "Dalit" does not occur even once in the summary table report.
