Bharat Bandh LIVE Updates; SC/ST Act Protest in MP, Section 144 imposed

Bharat Bandh LIVE Updates: Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 or SC / ST Act protects marginalized and marginalized communities from tyranny and discrimination. The objective of this Act is to create an environment in the society for the Dalit community so that they can live a respectful life. However, on March 20, 2018, the Supreme Court expressed concern over the misuse of the Act and prohibited the immediate arrest of the accused as soon as the FIR was lodged under this law. Along with this, the court also provided pre-bail bail to avoid arrest. The Supreme Court said in its decision that government employees cannot be arrested without the permission of any competent authority. The Court also said in its order that the arrest of the common citizen under this act should be after an investigation of the case.

After this decision of the Supreme court, the Dalit community came down on the streets and performed violently. 11 people died in violent demonstrations across the country. After seeing the sensitivity of the case, the Central Government filed a reconsideration petition in the Supreme Court, but the Supreme Court refused to give any relief in its judgment. The court said, ‘Our aim is to protect innocent people and we have not weakened this law in any way.’

On Wednesday, in the BJP Backward Classes meeting in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya announced the names of the roads in the name of the great men. Special interests were taken care of caste equations among the names of all the great men.

The upper castes of Madhya Pradesh have warned that if their demands are not considered, then the government will have to face its serious consequences. In view of the preparation of the closure of the Indian organizations, strict management of security has been done in Madhya Pradesh. 35 organizations in Madhya Pradesh have called for the closure of India. To maintain law and order in the state, the government has imposed Section 144 in many districts.

Why was the SC/ST Act made?

The purpose of this Act is to ensure the justice of the communities of Dalit, deprived and marginalized communities of the society. Also, the goal of this Act is to create a fear-free environment in the society for the Dalit class so that they can live their life with dignity and self-respect. The sense of touching the security of the Dalit community has also been kept in the category of crime in this Act.
