Rae Bareli: In a shocking incident, a Class 10 boy belonging to the Dalit community was allegedly assaulted and made to lick the feet of an upper caste person in Uttar Pradesh’s Rae Bareli.
Police have arrested eight people after a video of the incident, which took place on April 10, went viral.
In the video, the accused are seen sitting on motorcycles while the victim, shaking in fear, is made to sit on the ground. One of the accused asks the victim to spell ‘Thakur’ — an upper caste — and also abuses him. “Will you make such a mistake again?” another accused asks the victim, who is also allegedly made to lick the feet of one of the accused.
According to reports, the victim was “punished” as he had gone to ask for the wages of his widowed mother who had worked in the fields of some of the accused.
The victim filed a complaint with the police.
