January 27, 2025

THE protest by Dalit residents of Vengaivayal continued for the second day on Sunday.

- PEARSON LENEKAR S R @Pudukkottai

Villagers stated the protest will continue until the government orders a CBI investigation into the December 2022 incident.

The sit-in commenced the previous day after a CB-CID report pinned the blame on three persons for the alleged admixture of faecal matter in an overhead water tank that catered to the Dalits in the village.

The CB-CID submission to the Madras High Court which stated three persons had committed the offence due to personal motive upset the Dalit residents and they resorted to the protest.
