&lt;br /&gt;
Forget about 66 per cent increase in crimes against Dalits in last ten years or rapes of Dalit women doubled or a crime being committed against Dalits every 15 minutes. Let us just see what happened in the last one week:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- A Dalit boy was killed on Friday for buying and riding a horse in Gujrat demonstrating our hatred and prejudices against Dalits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- A Dalit couple from Kasganj,U.P. has been denied permission by the Allahabad High Court to have their marriage procession pass through a locality of Thakurs as district officials told the court that it may lead to law and order problem. In last three decades or so no such procession was ever allowed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Houses of current BJP legislator (Rajkumari Jatav from Hinduan and a former Congress MLA(Bharosi Lal Jatav) in Rajasthan were put on fire for their participation in the Bharat bandh against the apex court judgment of March 20, 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If houses of influential public figures are not safe, should we have any doubt about the need of stringent SC/ST law?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like racism, untouchability is based on &amp;lsquo;descent&amp;rsquo;. Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was candid enough to equate it with apartheid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Surprisingly the Supreme Court did not fully appreciate nature of crimes against Dalits and got carried away by the so called abuse of law thesis. NCRB data itself says that charge sheet was filed in as many 78% cases which means argument of false cases being filed out of &amp;lsquo;vengeance&amp;rsquo; is flawed because chargesheet is indeed filed after investigations by the police. The assertion by the court during review hearing on April 4,2018 that it is not against the SC/ST Act, it has not diluted its provisions and its primary concern was merely to protect the innocent were equally frustrating for those who experience caste prejudices on a daily basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SC/ST Act passed by the Rajiv Gandhi government dealt with some harsh and painful realities of our social life. Strangely Supreme Court did not understand special nature of crimes against Dalits. Within days of Supreme Court judgment, Bombay High Court has said that an abuse of Dalit will be an offence under the SC/ST Act only when it is committed in public galore and an abuse in the presence of two witnesses will not be enough. Under law of defamation statement is considered published even if one person heard, read or saw it, but caste slur and insult will no more be an offence in Maharastra under SC/ST Act if such a humiliating statement was made in the presence of only two persons who are coming forward to testify.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are we really going to rewrite our Constitution and law and take away rights from Dalits? Statements like those by the Prime Minister that no government has given as much respect to BR Ambedkar as the current government are not going to help, as the ground realities are entirely different.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
- A Dalit couple from Kasganj,U.P. has been denied permission by the Allahabad High Court to have their marriage procession pass through a locality of Thakurs as district officials told the court that it may lead to law and order problem. In last three decades or so no such procession was ever allowed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Houses of current BJP legislator (Rajkumari Jatav from Hinduan and a former Congress MLA(Bharosi Lal Jatav) in Rajasthan were put on fire for their participation in the Bharat bandh against the apex court judgment of March 20, 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If houses of influential public figures are not safe, should we have any doubt about the need of stringent SC/ST law?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like racism, untouchability is based on &amp;lsquo;descent&amp;rsquo;. Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was candid enough to equate it with apartheid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Surprisingly the Supreme Court did not fully appreciate nature of crimes against Dalits and got carried away by the so called abuse of law thesis. NCRB data itself says that charge sheet was filed in as many 78% cases which means argument of false cases being filed out of &amp;lsquo;vengeance&amp;rsquo; is flawed because chargesheet is indeed filed after investigations by the police. The assertion by the court during review hearing on April 4,2018 that it is not against the SC/ST Act, it has not diluted its provisions and its primary concern was merely to protect the innocent were equally frustrating for those who experience caste prejudices on a daily basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SC/ST Act passed by the Rajiv Gandhi government dealt with some harsh and painful realities of our social life. Strangely Supreme Court did not understand special nature of crimes against Dalits. Within days of Supreme Court judgment, Bombay High Court has said that an abuse of Dalit will be an offence under the SC/ST Act only when it is committed in public galore and an abuse in the presence of two witnesses will not be enough. Under law of defamation statement is considered published even if one person heard, read or saw it, but caste slur and insult will no more be an offence in Maharastra under SC/ST Act if such a humiliating statement was made in the presence of only two persons who are coming forward to testify.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are we really going to rewrite our Constitution and law and take away rights from Dalits? Statements like those by the Prime Minister that no government has given as much respect to BR Ambedkar as the current government are not going to help, as the ground realities are entirely different.&lt;br /&gt;

If houses of influential public figures are not safe, should we have any doubt about the need of stringent SC/ST law?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like racism, untouchability is based on &amp;lsquo;descent&amp;rsquo;. Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was candid enough to equate it with apartheid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Surprisingly the Supreme Court did not fully appreciate nature of crimes against Dalits and got carried away by the so called abuse of law thesis. NCRB data itself says that charge sheet was filed in as many 78% cases which means argument of false cases being filed out of &amp;lsquo;vengeance&amp;rsquo; is flawed because chargesheet is indeed filed after investigations by the police. The assertion by the court during review hearing on April 4,2018 that it is not against the SC/ST Act, it has not diluted its provisions and its primary concern was merely to protect the innocent were equally frustrating for those who experience caste prejudices on a daily basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SC/ST Act passed by the Rajiv Gandhi government dealt with some harsh and painful realities of our social life. Strangely Supreme Court did not understand special nature of crimes against Dalits. Within days of Supreme Court judgment, Bombay High Court has said that an abuse of Dalit will be an offence under the SC/ST Act only when it is committed in public galore and an abuse in the presence of two witnesses will not be enough. Under law of defamation statement is considered published even if one person heard, read or saw it, but caste slur and insult will no more be an offence in Maharastra under SC/ST Act if such a humiliating statement was made in the presence of only two persons who are coming forward to testify.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are we really going to rewrite our Constitution and law and take away rights from Dalits? Statements like those by the Prime Minister that no government has given as much respect to BR Ambedkar as the current government are not going to help, as the ground realities are entirely different.&lt;br /&gt;

Forget about 66 per cent increase in crimes against Dalits in last ten years or rapes of Dalit women doubled or a crime being committed against Dalits every 15 minutes. Let us just see what happened in the last one week:<br />
<br />
- A Dalit boy was killed on Friday for buying and riding a horse in Gujrat demonstrating our hatred and prejudices against Dalits.<br />
<br />
- A Dalit couple from Kasganj,U.P. has been denied permission by the Allahabad High Court to have their marriage procession pass through a locality of Thakurs as district officials told the court that it may lead to law and order problem. In last three decades or so no such procession was ever allowed.<br />
<br />
- Houses of current BJP legislator (Rajkumari Jatav from Hinduan and a former Congress MLA(Bharosi Lal Jatav) in Rajasthan were put on fire for their participation in the Bharat bandh against the apex court judgment of March 20, 2018.<br />
<br />
If houses of influential public figures are not safe, should we have any doubt about the need of stringent SC/ST law?<br />
<br />
Just like racism, untouchability is based on &lsquo;descent&rsquo;. Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was candid enough to equate it with apartheid.<br />
<br />
Surprisingly the Supreme Court did not fully appreciate nature of crimes against Dalits and got carried away by the so called abuse of law thesis.
