A dog's life couldn't get worse
BHOPAL: A dog's life couldn't get worse. A mongrel brought up in an upper caste home in Morena was kicked out after the Rajput family members discovered that their Sheru had eaten a roti from a dalit woman and was now an "untouchable". Next, Sheru was tied to a pole in the village's dalit locality. His controversial case is now pending with the district collector, the state police and the Scheduled Caste Atrocities police station in Morena district of north MP.
The black cur, of no particular pedigree, was accustomed to the creature comforts in the home of its influential Rajput owners in Manikpur village in Morena. Its master, identified by the police as Rampal Singh, is a rich farmer with local political connections.
A week ago Sunita Jatav, a dalit woman, was serving lunch to her farm labourer husband. "There was a 'roti' left over from lunch. I saw the dog roaming and fed it the last bread," Sunita said. "But when Rampal Singh saw me feeding the dog and he grew furious. He yelled: 'Cobbler woman, how dare you feed my dog with your roti?' He rebuked me publicly. I kept quiet thinking the matter would end there. But it got worse," she said.
On Monday, Rampal ex-communicated the dog. A village panchayat was called, whi- ch decided that Sheru would now have to live with Sunita and her family because it had become an untouchable. Sunita Jatav was fined Rs 15,000.
An outraged Sunita and her brother Nahar Singh Jatav rushed to Sumawali police station. They were directed to take the matter to the SC/ST Atrocities police station in Kalyan. "When we went there, the officer asked us why we fed the dog," recalls Nahar. "So we went to the DSP in the SC/ST Atrocities department and submitted a memorandum to him, as also to the district collector. But no one has registered our FIR so far.
DSP SC/ST Atrocities (Morena), Baldev Singh, recalls, "We got a complaint in which it has been alleged that a dog was declared untouchable and a dalit family fined for feeding it. We are investigating the allegation," said the officer.

I am out of here ..
The article published is from the Times of India....
It seems that just as you see India through rose coloured specs, so do many Pakistanis.
Just as you refuse to acknowledge problems within your society, so does Hannah and her cohorts.
Have a great weekend...
this report was from Times of India.

brit, not all parts of INDIA are of such type that you have said above..The kind of picture that you have for INDIA and its people are available to you either thru BBC or DISCOVERY...These channels are interested to highlight the weaker section of our society which infact exists everywhere in the world(i too have seen the poor and outdated areas/culture of US, MEXICO, VENZUELA, HAWAI, AFRICAN nations etc)...So better don't believe on what you see through the media or TV channel..
Mind you, INDIA is a country where richest among rich do stay..

Both Pakistan and India have serious issues relating to illiteracy and outdated cultural beliefs / practices.
What is required is proper education for all in society..

Hannah, you've strike again!!! get yourself busy in the matters of your own country...would be better for u..
general_disarray, India and Pakistan are living in stone age. I read somewhere a case in India where a woman was forced to marry a dog. Pakistan is famous for forced marriages and violence against women.
It was just stupid of the Brahmin dog to eat from a low caste dalit women! It's all the dog's fault. And I partly blame it's owners for not training the dog to spurn all advances from low caste animals!
Video of lynch mob killing two teenage brothers...
A horrifying video of a crowd watching a mob beat two teenage brothers to death has sparked mass demonstrations in Pakistan.
The video, broadcast on Pakistani news channels, shows a lynch mob taking turns to savagely beat the two boys with sticks, drawing blood from them before dragging and hanging their dead bodies from a nearby pole.
But perhaps just as shocking is that none of the dozens of people and police watching tried to stop the vicious attack.
Left to hang: The brothers' dead bodies were hung from poles after a mob, believing them to be robbers, beat them to death with sticks
It is now thought the boys, who were on their way to play cricket in Sialkot, an eastern Punjab province, may have been mistaken for robbers by the group who decided to
deliver brutal justice for their supposed crime last Sunday.
The scenes have outraged Pakistanis, some who are questioning how their society could passively watch the shocking killings without intervening.
The News, an English-language daily newspaper, wrote: 'Is this what we are? Savages? So utterly bereft of a speck of humanity that a crowd of ordinary men are passive spectators to public murder?'

Long time no see...
I've seen how they treat their females in some villages when they are "shunned" for some stupid, silly reason. According to some recent articles posted on here, they force them to run through the streets naked while men beat and/or rape them. No one helps them out. They just sit there and laugh at her. Any society that would find that normal is a few steps short on the evolutionary scale. No wonder they allow themselves to be enslaved by the millions over here in the Gulf. Sad...
I don't agree. Animals do not do such ugly things.
Evidently it's animals raising animals
You have much worse things happening in your country so just lay off.
