Sunita now fears losing her job as the parents of the school children allege that her appointment was in violation of norms, which the authorities deny.

Dehradun: On November 25, Sunita, a Dalit woman, secured a job as Bhojan Mata, a cook, at a local government school in Sukhidhang village of the Champawat district, Uttarakhand. Even though the monthly salary paid to her is a meagre Rs 3,000 a month, the job promised her a steady income to support her two children and an ailing, unemployed husband. But Sunita’s nightmare started soon after she cooked a meal at the school on December 14, as scores of students belonging to ‘upper castes’ simply refused to eat the food prepared by her because she is a Dalit.

The parents of these students are not only enraged by Sunita cooking for their children but also questioned her appointment. The students even started bringing their own lunchboxes daily to avoid eating meals cooked in the school. The school has 230 students and mid-day meals are offered to 66 students who are studying in junior classes.
