Dalit women and children attacked
Special Correspondent
PATNA: Local goons raided a Dalit hamlet and attacked women and children for allegedly ‘frolicking’ in a community temple in Shivalapar village under Shahpur police station in Danapur of Patna district on Friday evening.
A tiff erupted between the Dalits and Ramavtar Yadav, when he objected to the Dalit children ‘dirtying the premises of the Goddess Durga temple.’
Yadav and his three sons Sanjay, Umesh and Dinesh raided the hamlet, comprising 50 families.
Dal poured
They caught hold of Gyanati Devi, pulled her hair, beat her up and poured boiling ‘dal’ on her.
Her six-month-old daughter Sunita, too, suffered burns.
A case under the Atrocities on Scheduled Castes (Prevention) Act was registered on Friday night, Superintendent of Police (Rural) Upendra Kumar Sinha said.
Yadav was arrested and efforts were on to apprehend the others, he added.
