Appeal
In India after 60 years of independent, Dalits and Adivasis are vulnerable and have no access to their basic rights. Violation of their Human Rights is a regular event in India. The above case is an example of ongoing atrocities and Discrimination on Dalits from centuries. It also shows the insensitivity and lethargy of the state. The criminal justice administrative system and Land Reform policies are still ineffective.
