Monday, 17 October 2011
Hyderabad, October 17: The City Police registered a case under SC, ST
Attrocities Act against Labour Minister Danam Nagender and his
supporters for allegedly attacking a dalit youth near Tukkaramgate
here on Sunday morning.
The youth was allegedly beaten up by minister's men after a group of
Telangana activists threw eggs on Nagender's vehicle. The youth,
identified as Sharavan, had a bleeding injury on his face and multiple
injuries on the body. Basing on a complaint, a case under SC, ST
Atrocities Act has been booked against the minister and his men at the
Tukkaramgate Police Station.
Meanwhile, the attack has drawn widespread condemnation with the
pro-Telangana parties demanding his arrest and removal from the
cabinet. Handlooms and Textiles Minister Dr P Shankar Rao too
condemned the attack and demanded impartial probe into the matter. He
exhorted the dalit organisations to organise protest across the State
against the minister. He informed that he spoke to the police
officials concerned asking them to take severe action against those
involved in the attack.
Demanding stern action against the Labour Minister, the Osmania
University Students JAC said that the state government arrested the
MPs and MLAs who were peacefully participating in the Rail Roko
agitation, but spared a minister who openly attacked a dalit youth.
