Batala, October 5 Taking note of a news item published in The Tribune
regarding immolation by a Dalit boy after allegedly being harassed by
certain influential persons of his village and the police, chairman of
the National Commission for Scheduled Castes Buta Singh has summoned
the SSP, Batala, and the Inspector-General of the border range.

The commission has sought from the officials clarification on the
alleged harassment of the boy and asked them to appear before the
commission on October 11.

It has been alleged that Sandeep Singh of Matholla village in the Sri
Hargobindpur area, was driven to self-immolation by certain
influential persons of the village and the police who believed he had
stolen the mobile phone of his teacher. Batala SSP R.N. Dhoke said he
had not received the summons yet. — TNS
