‘Hold Collectors, top police officers responsible for failing to prevent attacks on SC by dominant castes’

The Hindu  

The Communist Party of India has urged the Tamil Nadu Government to hold the District Collectors and the top police officials of the region responsible for the attacks being unleashed on Scheduled Castes by the ‘dominant castes’ in Tamil Nadu “as they have failed in their responsibility of preventing such attacks”. Aasaithambi said attack unleashed by the ‘dominant castes’ on Scheduled Castes, including students, was on the rise in Tirunelveli and Tenkasi districts. Even though the attack on the SC student from Nanguneri and his younger sister by his classmates after trespassing into his house triggered shock waves across Tamil Nadu, similar attacks were continuing as the members of the ‘dominant castes’ were showing mean respect for law due to ineffective law enforcement. Even as this Committee recommendations were gathering dust for the past several months, one more attack on a SC student from Ariyanayagipuram near Srivaikundam in Thoothukudi district had been orchestrated by the teens from a ‘dominant community’, he said.
