Master Stroke: 'Upper caste' people of Sonbarsa village puts poster in protest of SC/ST act
Recently, hundreds of people from the upper caste communities took to streets across the country today to protest against The Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
Earlier this year, the apex court had removed the strict provision of mandatory arrests under the Act. This decision had triggered nationwide protests by Scheduled Castes organisations, forcing the Centre to bring an amendment to the Act during the Monsoon Session to overrule the SC order.
