Government provides separate water source for Dalits cannot use upper caste source

India
Madhya Pradesh – BJP Government

At a village in Madhya Pradesh, over 200 dalit or underprivileged villagers are not allowed by other families to drink water from a public bore-well.

Dalits in this village in Alirajpur district were forced to drink water from a dirty well as they are considered "untouchable" by upper caste villagers.

They were allegedly also beaten up if they used the public toilet.

When media came to know about this, they reported the incident
After that villagers complained to the district collector.

When their distress made media headlines, a separate bore-well was hurriedly constructed over the weekend.

Officials say they could not convince the upper caste villagers to stop harassing the families.

The state administration's solution was to construct a separate well just for the lower caste families.

Why Officials cannot arrest them and send them to Jail?

No action has been taken so far against those accused of beating the Dalits and forcing them to use dirty water.

The action of the government is nothing but encouragement to caste system rules.

The above solution clearly shows that caste system is still prevalent in India

Caste system in India is nothing but another name to the Racism
