The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), and All India Agricultural Workers Union (AIWAU) jointly called for a protest in several parts of India on Tuesday demanding justice for the alleged gang-rape of a dalit girl in Hathras as well as rising atrocities against marginalised sections of the society. Tapan Sen, general secretary, CITU, pointed out how the heinous crime was integrally linked to the larger project of marginalising dalits and oppressed sections under the “crisis-ridden neo-liberal order.” Anjali Ojha reports
