Hathras gang rape: Karnataka dalit forums to hold protest across state today

Bengaluru: The Dalit organizations in Karnataka will protest across the state on Monday condemning the Hathras incident.

Reportedly, protests will be organized across 23 districts in the state demanding the dismissal of the Uttar Pradesh government.

If no action is taken, the state organization will join the national-level committee for an agitation strike across the country.

The UP police have shown their casteist and anti-woman side by destroying the evidence, burning the body of the victim, and announcing that there was no rape. Their action will lead to loss of justice, destroying the basic human rights enshrined in the Constitution, said the organization chiefs.
