From: "hacker_cusat" <anivar@hackermail.com> Protest against `untouchability' http://www.hindu.com/2004/09/10/stories/2004091003830500.htm By Our Staff Reporter The Hindu PALAKKAD, SEPT. 9. The alleged untouchability being practised against 150 families of Chakilias, a Scheduled Caste community, in some border villages of the district is snowballing into a major issue with three organisations taking up their cause. The Ambedkar Dalit Sanmarg Sanghom, Adi Thamizar Viduthalai Munnani and the Haritha Development Association organised a mass agitation in the area on Wednesday. They made a local barber cut the hair of a boy from the Chakilia community on the occasion. Kalimuthu, A. Marimuthu and Arumugan Pattachira, leaders of the Sanghom, Viduthalai Munnani and the Haritha Association, alleged that the members of the community were not allowed to enter some of the temples of the area. They alleged that untouchability was being practised at Ambedkar Colony, Pudur, Gonvidapuram, Neelipara, Attayampathy and Chemanampathy in Muthalamada grama panchayat. |
