Even as heinous crimes against Dalits are on the rise, the national media, liberals and vociferous Marxists have chosen to remain silent on this. Rahul Gandhi who tweets on all incidents happening around country, especially in the BJP-ruled states, turned a blind eye to massive human rights violations taking place in Rajasthan.
On August 18, a 32-year-old Dalit teacher had succumbed to her injuries at the Sawai Man Singh Government Hospital about a week after she was set on fire by some of her relatives during a dispute over a monetary transaction. The victim, Anita Regar, was a teacher in Raisar village near Jaipur. According to reports, the accused were angry that Smt Regar had asked for the money she had lent some time ago.
The accused allegedly poured inflammable liquid on her and set her on fire. Although she contacted the police, the police did not turn up in time.
Recently, a headmaster in a Rajasthan school allegedly beat a small Dalit boy for drinking water from a pitcher which was meant for upper caste students. A week after the boy died due to internal injuries.
Similarly, the Rajasthan government has failed to take action against Islamists who have targeted Hindus in many places. Recently, a Hindu youth was lynched in Udaipur by Islamists. The pro-terror Islamist outfit, Popular Front of India, has expanded its activity considerably in Rajasthan with support of the clerics of Ajmer dargah and politicians.
