………………………………………………………………………….
The Supreme Court had on March 20 ordered that there shall be no immediate arrest based on a complaint filed under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The apex court ordered that before arresting a public servant under the Act, a preliminary probe by an officer not below the rank of deputy superintendent is a must.
We have strong criticism that this order is sure to cause miscarriage of the purpose and merit of the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act which is meant to protect the weakest and most oppressed sections of the society.
We deplore the inaction and purported silence from the part of Modi Government in order to tilt the balance in favour of caste chauvinism that ever perpetrates Atrocities upon Dalits and Adivasis.
We demand remedial governmental action such as judicial review application or legislative measure.
We call upon all the democratic and secular forces to unitedly rally to wage and struggle for such remedial action
