Dalit labourer beaten up for demanding salary

Six persons have been booked for allegedly beating up a Dalit labourer when he demanded his salary.
A case was filed against Deepak and his five accomplices yesterday following a court order, after the victim Chandra Pal alleged that he was thrashed by the accused when he asked for his salary.
The victim had approached various police stations in the case but no FIR was filed, following which he took the judicial route.
Pal, a resident of Khadaua village who used to work at Deepak's house here, had demanded his salary from the owner on July 26, SHO Etah, Z M Rawat said.

He was then beaten by his employer and his five accomplices, police said.
An investigation is on in the matter, Rawat said, adding that no arrests have been made in this connection so far.
