Kerosene In Well - That Was Dalits' Punishment For Band Baaja At Wedding | Read

The well that supplied water to nearly 500 Dalits, was yielding kerosene. The alarmed Dalits called in the authorities and the well was pumped out. It appeared that kerosene had been deliberately poured in to foul up the well. The Dalits called it revenge by the upper caste families whom Chander Meghwal had flouted.
