Attack on Dalits: Two held in Arsikere
Arsikere (Hassan dist), Oct 19, DHNS:
Arsikere rural police have arrested two persons for allegedly
assaulting dalits at Jajur on Tuesday night.
The Dalits were allegedly attacked by an upper caste group, who were
opposing the former from singing at the festival at Veerabhadreshwara
temple in the village.
When Dalit Colony resident Ningaiah started singing devotional songs,
a group of people including Kumaraswamy, Rangaswamy, Sanju, Gangadhar
and Mani attacked the former and Prasannakumar, Umesh, Jeevan Shankar
and Veeresh.
Dalits had filed a complaint with rural police based on which
Kumaraswamy and Gangadhar were arrested. Dalit leaders protested that
even though remaining three culprits were in town they had not been
arrested by police.
