Interstate Dalits cannot enjoy SC privileges'

July 3, 2011
Mangalore, July 3: People belonging to Scheduled Castes who migrate to another state cannot claim privilege under SC Status in the migrated state, clarified Sarvotham Pai, Superintendent of Police, Civil Rights Enforcement Cell.

He was addressing monthly SC/ST grievance meeting held by the district police at SP office here on Sunday.

Mr Pai said many Tamilians have settled in Sullia taluk of the Dakshina Kannada and enjoying the benefits of various schemes based on SC status their community enjoyed in Tamil Nadu. Some of these people are also serving in police department for more than 18 years.

He said Civil Rights Enforcement Cell has served notifications to Deputy Directors of Public Instruction in four districts of Karnataka to take stringent action against those schools which take fees from SC/ST students. The Cell has also written to Director of Medical Education and Principal of Medical Education regarding Kasturba Medical College which charged Rs 75,000 fees for a Dalit student.

Devappa Hydangoor of Sullia urged the police officers to arrest Markanja Gram Panchayat President, Secretary and a Staff who allegedly involved in the financial irregularities of Rs. 42 lakh between 2005 and 2010. Since 75% of beneficiaries are Dalits, Dalit organisations will take out a massive protest, he said and urged the police authorities to arrest the accused before August 15.

Saraswathi from Sullia alleged various departments including Revenue and Social welfare department in Sullia taluk of not cooperating in issuing caste certificates to Dalit.

She said after the establishment of 'Nemmadi Kendra', the officers delaying in issuing the income and caste certificates unnecessarily.
