Udaipur, The joy of a Dalit family in Hariyav village, under the Dabok police station area of the district, was disrupted last night when miscreants attacked the Bindooli while hurling casteist slurs.
Applicant Bhairulal Meghwal stated in his police complaint that at around 10 pm on April 29, his daughter Pooja’s Bindooli was passing through the main road of Dhira Talai when Laxman Singh, Madhu Singh, Kishan Singh, Uday Singh, Arjun Singh, along with other family members and women from the village, blocked the way.
It is alleged that Madhu Singh’s daughter, Manju Kunwar, grabbed a young man’s collar, hurled casteist insults at him, and threatened to cause bloodshed if the Bindooli continued. Then, the attackers suddenly stopped the DJ, forced the bride off the horse, and attacked the wedding party and guests with sticks, rods, and swords. In this violent clash, a man named Takhat Singh reportedly attacked with a sword, injuring several people, including Vardi Chand, Ganesh, Jitu, and Manju Meghwal. Stones were also pelted during the attack, seriously injuring women and children.
The victims allege that, in addition to the assault, the attackers snatched gold mangalsutras from the women’s necks and committed robbery.
The incident has created an atmosphere of tension in the entire area. The applicant has appealed to the Dabok police station officer to take strict legal action against the named accused and ensure justice. The police are now investigating the matter.
