A delegation of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) led by the party’s national general secretary Varla Ramaiah and former Minister Nakka Anand Babu met Governor S. Abdul Nazeer and complained to him about the atrocities being committed on Dalits, on Thursday.
In a memorandum to Mr. Nazeer, the TDP leaders stated that there was a series of attacks on the Dalits, and the government was not taking necessary action against it, which amounts to encouraging such incidents.
The SC/ST Atrocities Prevention Act was rendered ineffective as the attacks were continuing due to the government’s negligence and its lack of commitment to curb the menace.
