Compensation for Schedule Caste families suffered in anti-SC violence

Early this year, houses of SC families were attacked in Azamgarh by rioters. Many including women and children suffered severe injuries. Some admitted to hospital were attacked again. Our team met the victims and helped them resume their lives. On behalf of these SC families we approached National Commission for Schedule Castes (NCSC) demanding compensation for the families under the provision of SC/ST Act. We
appeared in hearings at NCSC and presented the case of victims. As a result, Rs 3 Lakh compensation amount per family has been paid to 10 families in the case.
