KVPS alleges social boycott of Dalits

Staff Reporter

SANGAREDDY: The Kula Vivaksha Porata Samithi (KVPS) alleged that
around 100 Dalit families of Siripuram village in Hatnoora mandal were
facing social boycott for the past one week.

Speaking to reporters here on Thursday, KVPS state vice-president K.
Rajaiah alleged that these families were socially boycotted over the
issue of allotment of land for the installation of Dr. Ambedkar statue
in the village. "These families are not being given work in the
fields. Newspaper supply was stopped, even servant maids stopped
coming to work. They are facing serious problems and we demand the
district administration to respond immediately and act against those
responsible for the boycott,'' he said.
