Sidhwan Bet: A case has come to light in which a daily wage laborer who had gone to work in the fields was stripped naked by the farm owners and a video was made and sent to the village without clothes and the video was shown to his son to humiliate him. According to the information, a poor Dalit daily wage laborer in Bangsipura village had gone to work in the fields with a landlord, where they had a dispute over something. It is being told that the farm owner along with his partner first took off the clothes of the laborer to humiliate him and later made a video of him.

The incident was revealed when the farm owner showed the video to the laborer’s son. The victim went to the farm owner’s house and pleaded to cut the video and not talk to anyone else, but it had no effect on him. Ashamed, the victim brought the matter to the notice of the village panchayat, Gramin Mazdoor Union (Mashal) and Gramin Mazdoor Union Punjab. Narrating the inhuman incident that happened with him in the presence of Panchayat and institutions, the victim said that after making the video, he pleaded with both the people to give him clothes but they did not listen to him.

Desperate, he walked towards the village in a naked state and picked up a cloth from the way and wrapped it around his neck and came home. He also alleged that both the persons also insulted his caste. To get justice for the victim, the organization secretary of Gramin Mazdoor Union (Mashal) Dr. Sukhdev Singh Bhundri and the president of District Ludhiana of Gramin Mazdoor Union Punjab, Avtar Singh Tari, met the head of Police Station Sidhwan Bet and demanded action. Fearing this, the said people came to the village panchayat and apologized in writing and repented that they would not do such a thing in future. There is a lot of discussion in the area about this incident.
