DOTO Database (Documentation Of The Oppressed) is an online portal with data on hate-crimes in India.[1] This website was launched in 7 March 2018 at Constitution Club of India, New Delhi. The inauguration ceremonywas attended by Ram Punyani, Teesta Setalvad, Zafar ul Islam Khan, John Dayal [2]and other social activists.[3]

Documentation of the oppressed is an independent, non-profit documentation center based in New Delhi. It is run by a network of civil society organizations, both at the national and at the grassroot level like Quill Foundation, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, CHRI, People's Union for Civil Liberties and others

Doto Database functions both as a tracker of violence, and a site for in-depth narratives. The database mixes a crowd-sourcing model with its own investigative and editorial teams.[4]
