NEW DELHI, February 17, 2011
Website to create awareness on atrocities under SC/ST Act
Special Correspondent

The Department of SC/ST of the Delhi Government would be launching a
website to create greater awareness about the provisions of SC/ST
Prevention of Atrocities Act and special courts are also being
contemplated to deal with such atrocities.

Chairing a meeting of the State-level Vigilance and Monitoring
Committee set up under the provision of Rule 16 of SC/ST Prevention of
Atrocities Act, Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit directed the department
to work towards launching the website. She said it would facilitate
registration of FIRs related to violation of rules under the Act and
go a long way in preventing atrocities against SC/ST.

At the meeting, it was pointed out that victims of such atrocities
have been facing difficulties in getting their FIRs registered. It was
also decided that sign-boards stating designated police officer in the
police stations and Sub-Divisional Magistrate offices be put to enable
the victims to seek assistance in getting their FIRs registered.

The Delhi Government would also consider setting up dedicated courts
for trial of offences relating to atrocities against SC/STs. To ensure
compliance of the Act, the Government has constituted a State-level
Vigilance and Monitoring Committee headed by the Chief Minister and
the Secretary SC/ST Welfare has been nominated its nodal officer.

The issue of victimisation of domestic helps and other helping hands
being provided by placement agencies was also discussed.

Paswan flays Nitish for dividing dalits in Bihar

Agencies Posted online: Mon Feb 21 2011, 20:47 hrs
Patna : Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) today accused Bihar Chief Minister
Nitish Kumar of dividing dalits for "electoral interests" and appealed
to the community to "stick as a group".

"The ruling NDA sought to create a wedge among the dalits by carving
out mahadalits in a strategic move to weaken their unity," LJP
president Ram Vilas Paswan said at a function to mark the 634th birth
anniversary of noted dalit icon Sant Ravidas.

Claiming that there has been no improvement in the socio-economic and
political condition of the mahadalits since they got a distinct
identity a few years ago, Paswan said NDA government's intention was
always malafide.

If dalits want to fulfill their political aspirations, it is prudent
for them to close their ranks and stick together as one group, he said
in the context of a dalit leader vying for the post of the prime
minister.

Paswan said it was consolidation of the dalit votes that catapulted
the BSP President Mayawati as the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister
following a decisive victory in 2007 Assembly polls.

If the dalits of Bihar wanted to enjoy political powers in Bihar, they
have no alternative to rally behind a dalit leader, the LJP President
said.

[ZESTCaste] Girl's father kills lover, throws body in river

Girl's father kills lover, throws body in river
I P Singh, TNN, Feb 22, 2011, 03.26am IST

KAPURTHALA: In a case of honour killing, the father of a girl
allegedly killed her lover, who was from a so-called lower caste, and
threw his body in river Beas, early this month.

The accused, who has been arrested, reportedly told the police that he
killed the boy to "save the honour of his family". The girl belonged
to Jat community while the boy was from Valmiki community, which made
the affair unacceptable to the girl's father.

According to police sources, the victim, Sandeep Singh, 20, of
Choladha village, who was a cop in Punjab police and a promising
Kabaddi player, had gone missing on February 6. He was to fly to
Malaysia for a kabaddi tournament on February 14. Later his family
learnt that he was kidnapped by the girl's father Balwinder Singh of
neighbouring Lakh Waryan village.

The girl, Karamdeep Kaur, is a student of BA part-II, while the youth
had given up his studies after plus two.

"Sandeep was preparing for his tournament when he went missing. We
kept searching him, but failed," said Balkar Singh, uncle of the
youth. He said that Sandeep and Karamdeep, who were class-fellows, had
been having an affair since their school days.

"When Balwinder was rounded up and questioned on Monday he confessed
to his crime," said SHO, Kabirpur, Narinder Pal Singh Aujla. He said
that efforts were on to search for the body. Call details of Sandeep's
mobile phone revealed that the last call made from his phone was to
the girl's cell phone.
