Miryalaguda, Sept 17: Peramalla Pranay Kumar, the 23-year-old Dalit man, who was killed on Friday afternoon, eight months after he married upper caste girl, was laid to rest here on Sunday.

His pregnant wife Amrutha, who was brought home from hospital on Saturday night, was inconsolable.

“I can’t live without him, but I will, for my baby, and to fight against caste system. No one should experience this pain,” said grief-stricken Amrutha, in her fifth month of pregnancy.

‘Betrayal’

Heart-rending scenes were witnessed when Ajay, Pranay’s brother, who is pursuing medicine in Ukraine, arrived for the funeral around about 2.30 p.m.

“What happened to my brother is betrayal. Maruthi Rao (the girl’s father) should be kept in jail,” he Ajay, grieving with his family members Balaswamy, Premalatha and Amrutha.

Pranay’s body was carried in a freezer box along with his family members and relatives on a tractor, and as per Christian customs, and his body was placed in a coffin before burial.

The town came to a standstill with the three-km funeral procession that passed through the town centre and St. Mary’s Church, while ‘Jai Bheem’ and ‘Lal Salaam’ slogans by various student and voluntary organisations rent the air.

Global thinker, my foot.

This girl is a PERSON and has her own mind. Cant you respect her wishes...

If father loves the girl, cant he change rather than expecting the girl to change.

He should be sentenced to death soon. Why did he save his daughter and kill somebody elses son. His partents loved him and took care of him too. Did they kill the girl?

please media dont bring caste and religion name in between, this s just a honour killing and girl also equal responsible for this.. from birth to till she run with the guy she loved. parents had taken good care of her. how they will feel after daughter goes against thr wish. for all the girls my request is to first try convence parents if they dont angry leave it thr only by thinking u will have a better and good life in future. anyone s not parmanent in this world. just move away......

Will bury alive those who raise slogans against Modi and Yogi: UP Minister

Agencies

January 14,2020

Aligarh, Jan 14: Uttar Pradesh Minister Raghuraj Singh has courted a major controversy after he said that people who raise slogans against Prime Minster Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath "would be buried alive".

The minister said this on Sunday while addressing a rally in Aligarh to muster support for the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) 2019.

"If you raise slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi or Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, I will bury you alive," he threatened.

He was apparently referring to protests held by students of Aligarh Muslim University against the CAA during which they allegedly raised slogans against the Prime Minister and the chief minister.

The minister further said: "These one per cent people are opposing the CAA. They stay in India, eat up our taxes and then raise 'murdabad' slogans against the leaders. This country belongs to people of all faiths, but slogan shouting against the Prime Minister or chief minister is unacceptable."

He also launched an attack on India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. "What was Nehru's caste? He did not have a 'khaandan'," he claimed.

Raghuraj Singh is minister of state in the labour ministry in Uttar Pradesh.
