Karauli, Rajasthan: A Dalit family in Karauli district has submitted a memorandum to the District Collector, alleging physical assault, caste-based harassment, and inaction by the police. The family has requested immediate intervention and legal action against the accused.
According to the memorandum, Meena Devi, a resident of Bhim Nagar under Karauli Kotwali police station limits, alleged that a dispute over a public pathway led to an altercation with some local residents. She claimed that when she objected to the obstruction of the pathway, the accused allegedly used caste-related slurs and physically assaulted her.
The family further alleged that other relatives who attempted to intervene were also subjected to physical violence during the incident. Several family members reportedly sustained injuries and received medical treatment at the District Hospital in Karauli.
The complainants stated that despite reporting the matter to the local police, no effective action has been taken so far. As a result, they approached the district administration and requested a fair investigation into the allegations.
In the memorandum, the family has demanded that a case be registered under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, that strict legal action be taken against the accused, and that security be provided to the affected family members.
No official statement from the district administration or police authorities had been issued at the time of reporting. The allegations mentioned in the memorandum are yet to be independently verified, and the facts of the case will become clearer after an official investigation.
