Lucknow, Feb 23 (IANS): A young Dalit girl was burnt alive in an Uttar Pradesh village in Unnao district late last night, police said.

Eighteen-year-old Moni was cycling to a vegetable market on Thursday when some unidentified persons confronted her. They surrounded her and poured petrol over her. Before she could react, they had set her ablaze.

The girl up in flames ran for some 100 metres to save herself but finally collapsed and died on the spot.

Senior police officers, including IG (Zone) Sujit Kumar Pandey rushed to the crime scene around midnight and spoke to the victims family.

The police is trying to find out whether it was a case of stalking or family enmity. The victim's family has ruled out any case of enmity.

Officials told IANS that the police has recovered an empty petrol can, a match box and detected tyre marks of a four-wheeler near Tedha Bazaar where the crime took
place.

Superintendent of Police (SP) Pushpanjali along with the Station House Officer (SHO) Uttam Singh Rathore have interrogated several persons in connection with the crime.

A case has been registered against unidentified persons.

    I am sure more than here reported was done to this poor girl.When they do autopsy the truth might comeout.Simply they must have not burnt.probably to washout their identity after their dirty work.why this ?Is it her fault that she was born in a Dalit house?May her soul rest in peace.Heartfelt sympathy to her family.They should get good amount of compansation from Govt,because they were not in a state to protect her.Accused should be given life time punishment or death penalty.

    The institutional killing of Rohith Vemula paved way for the much delayed Dalit spring in the entire country. Jignesh Mevani was born out of Una incident,the whipping of the four men of the Dalit community was felt by every single Dalit in the country. Every Dalit lynched,every Dalit girl raped has been watched with angst ,despair and anger by the community across the nation. It has been Kaliyug for the community under the BJP/RSS.ABVP/VHP/HM despicable combine of terror and loot.The Dalit march in Mumbai on the occasion of Bhima-Koregaon was targeted ,the culprits were not caught but Dalits have been arrested for no reason.It is State terror even in UP,the Bhim Army leader has been jailed while terrorists with Hindutva flag are allowed to cause havoc,kill and destroy men and property.Is the planning for exterminating Jignesh Mevani happening between states like Gujarat,MP and UP?Possible.The opposition parties have to lend him help and save from the 'Merchants of death' !
    Dalit girl, Law student and newly elected Gujarat’s independent MLA, Jignesh Mevani, has expressed fears for his life after WhatsApp conversations by two senior police officers went viral on social media platforms.
    Is Dalit became new Muslims of India?

    The Dalit voice is simply not heard in the mainstream Indian Media and even responsible citizens from majority community attempting to put the plight under the carpet . Instead taking the cry of their own downtrodden community hypocfites are much interested to poking other believers internal affairs. The prime debate are dominated with muslim women empowerment like triple talaq, polygamy, Beef eating, debate over Hadiya's Love Jihad, Mohammed Nallappad assault current case etc etc. We will never find a single debate today over this coverage.
