Dalit youth alleges he was forced
to eat human excretaDindigul (TN), Jan 14 (PTI) In a shocking case of caste
discrimination, a dalit has alleged that he was forced to eat
human faeces by a group of '
high caste Christians' for walking
with chappals in their street in the district.
The dalit youth, in his complaint to Batalagundu police
inspector, said "a group of high caste Christians forced human
faeces into my mouth after beating me for walking with
chappals in their street".
Sadayandi, who is from Indhira Nagar in Meikovilpatti in
Dindigul district, claimed the incident occurred on January 7
when a group of more than 10 'caste christians' stopped him
and asked if he was not aware of the "order" that dalits
should not walk with chappals in their street. Then they asked
him to remove his chappals and slapped him with it, he said.
"One of them suggested that I should be fed human
excreta.
