Hindraf's blueprint aims to resolve six major problems faced by the Indian community, namely: Displaced estate workers, stateless persons, lack of access to education and job opportunities, police brutality including deaths in custody, and institutionalised racism.
Some of the proposed solutions include providing adequate compensation and skills training for displaced estate workers, establishing a minority affairs ministry, implementing the Independent Police Misconduct and Complaints Commission (IPCMC) and ratifying the UN's International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination.
