In a small village called Borgaon in Tasgaon tehsil in Sangli district a 62 year old dali man lost his life to upper caste arrogance. Vaman Nyaynirgune was working on his farm with his wife's brother Sunil Kamble on 15th July 2015.

Two men from the Martha caste Sachin Patil and Chandrakant Patildrove by on their motorcycle and asked Sunil for Vaman whereabouts. Sunil answered them and turned around to continue work, only to be beaten without any provocation. They just said he did not 'GREET' them with the respect befitting a Patil.

Sunil went and informed Vaman who sent him with his son to the nearest police station which is in Tasgaon 14kms from Borgaon, and continued to work on the farm. When Sachin and Chandrakant found that a case is being registered against them, they got so angry that a dalit could go to the police station to report them, they went back to Vaman's farm and beat him up. When Vaman's son returned to the farm he found his father beaten up and lying on the ground. They rushed to the hospital in Tasgaon but he was declared dead on arrival.
This is the second death of a dalit man to uppercaste arrogance in recent times in the so called progressive state of Maharashtra .

Maharashtra is known for its purogami   progressive ,reformist or forward  movement which was s led by PhuleShahuAmbedkar in modern times.

Unfortunately progressive groups are fast asleep and have not responded to this atrocity.

How many more dalit deaths do they need to fight back?

If we had responded in anger when the young boy in Shirdi was killed recently, maybe just maybe the uppercaste would not become so emboldened.

How many more such deaths?
