National Commission for SC to recommend All-Dalit Police Stations
In order to ensure speedy justice for Dalits facing discrimination on a large-scale, there was a need to have ‘All-Dalit Police Stations' on the lines of all-woman police stations to solely deal with cases of atrocities against the Scheduled Castes, said Latha Priyakumar, Member, National Commission for Scheduled Castes.
Recommendation
Talking to The Hindu here on Wednesday, Ms. Priyakumar said the Commission would make a recommendation to the State Government to have all-Dalit stations in every district and fast track courts.
Dissatisfaction
She also expressed dissatisfaction over the manner in which the State Government had been dealing with issues affecting the Dalits. On the lack of adequate facilities at the Government Adi Dravidar welfare hostels, she said infrastructure needed to be improved. Ms. Priyakumar would meet various organisations and victims of atrocities and also have discussions with the Collector and officials of various departments in Madurai.
