DALIT 2LST

Some high caste Christians said elder dalits did not wear
chappals when they walked in their streets but youths were
"breaching the rule."

Sadayandi said he was treated at Batlagundu Hospital.
The youth alleged that police did not take any action
and so he approached an NGO. When questioned by a fact finding
team of the NGO, Arockiswamy said Sadayandi, who was then
drunk, blocked their way and dared them to ram their vehicle
into him.
Arockiasamy and others had allegedly slapped him and
asked him to go home.
Police Inspector Muneeswaran said it was Sadayandi who
had created the problem. They were trying to bring about a
rapprochement between the dalits and the Christians, he said.
