The situation of Dalits in India.

A Dalit family in Guna tried to commit suicide in front of the police administration. Raju and Savitri requested the police not to run JCB on their crops. After police refuse to stop they drink the pesticides. Their children are seen crying,

one of the child sat on the mother’s chest and one young boy is holding his father. This incident is only reported by one hindi news portal Patrika. This is not Yemen, this is India.

Pradhanmantri Awaas Yojana, Jan Dhan and all these fancy policies never touch these families.

This incident will not hit the elite and privileged like the accidental death of Elephant or any film star. Dalit dead or alive does not shake the conscience of this nation. https://m.patrika.com/amp-news/guna-news/husband-wife-consumed-poison-6-children-suffered-loss-6269423/

The Guna district police lodged a case under 353, 141, 309 of IPC against seven people, including the Dalit couple instead of acting against the cops at the Guna Cantt police station. Justice?

Charges against the family members should also be quashed immediately and government must ensure their safety. https://twitter.com/ani/status/1283450612084953089?s=21
