Temple of education becomes the center of violence: Dalit student dies in a clash between students in the classroom
Posted on: by Dalit Times
In Bihar, a Dalit student of class 10 was brutally beaten to death. His only crime was that he belonged to the Dalit community, and his classmates made him a target of their angry mentality and casteist thinking. After all, how long will the Dalit community continue to be a victim of such violence and discrimination in our society?
Another heartbreaking incident has come to light in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, where a Dalit student became the victim of caste discrimination and violence. A student named Saurabh of class 10 was brutally beaten to death in a fight that broke out during a class dispute. Saurabh’s only crime was that he belonged to the Dalit community, and his classmates made him the target of their angry mentality and casteist thinking. This brutal incident has once again raised the question that how long will the Dalit community continue to be a victim of such violence and discrimination in our society?
The horror of racial violence: even schools are not safe
Today, when the school, which is called the temple of education in our country, has also become the center of caste violence, this situation is extremely worrying. School is a place where children learn together, prepare for the future, but here Dalit students like Saurabh are losing their lives at the hands of their peers. This incident is not just a case of murder of a Dalit student, but it is a symbol of hatred and discrimination spread against the entire Dalit community, which highlights the deep problems of the society.
Silence of society and the roots of casteism
Saurabh’s murder was not the result of a simple clash, it is the deep-rooted casteism that is still prevalent in our society. In the video, it can be seen how Saurabh was mercilessly beaten, he was beaten badly with sticks, due to which he died on the spot. After this incident, the attacking students ran away, but the silence of the society and the negligence of the administration once again proved that the voice of the Dalit community is still unheard. This incident shows the cracks in our society, where Dalits struggling with casteism and social discrimination do not get equal rights.
Increasing violence against Dalits: When will this stop?
Saurabh’s death has once again brought into focus the growing violence against the Dalit community across the country. In the last few years, incidents of atrocities against Dalits have been increasing, and this time the violence has taken place at a place where children feel safe – i.e. school. This incident shows that the safety and dignity of Dalits in our country is still at risk, be it in a village, a city or the walls of a school.
Call for justice: Society should stand with Saurabh’s family
Saurabh’s family is demanding justice today. They have lost their son, and now want the culprits to receive the harshest punishment. But this is not just a fight of one family, it is a fight of the entire Dalit community, which has been a victim of discrimination and oppression for centuries. Saurabh’s death is a warning to our society that if strict steps are not taken against casteism and violence even now, we will give a divided and unsafe society to the coming generations.
What will be the future: How can the safety of Dalit students be ensured?
The question arises that what next? Will Dalit students like Saurabh have to feel the threat to their lives even in educational institutions? Will the day ever come in our society when Dalit students will be able to live with their rights and receive education without any fear? This incident forces us to think that if our children become victims of caste violence even in school, then what kind of society are we building?
Fight for justice and equality for Dalits
Saurabh’s murder is not just the death of a student, it is a tragedy for the entire Dalit community. This incident exposes the ugly face of our society, which is still divided on the basis of caste and religion. Taking strict action against this violence and punishing the culprits will be an important step towards justice not only for Saurabh’s family but for the entire Dalit community. Society will now have to become aware and stand against casteism, so that such incidents never happen again.
