Erode.Dt,Sathyamangalam Tk.Chikkarasampalayam Arunthathiyer girl child Punitha (14 age) rap and murder
In the Sathyamanagalam Taluk of Erode District in Tamilnadu, in the Chikarasam palayam village is located, a government Hr.Sec. School where about 400 students are studying. Among them Arunthathiyar children are also studying. In the above situation, the arunthathiyar students who come to school 5 minutes late are punished by sending them home and not allowing them to attend class, intentionally. This has been the practice for a long time without any consideration on the part of the school administration regarding the student’s future and education.
In this village, Mr.Sakthi(38) a arunthathiyar is working as bonded labour in a farm in Thanirpanthal thotam, his daughter Punitha(14) studying in the above school in the 8th std. On the date of incident i.e. (08.08.08) Punitha as usual went to school in the morning. But unfortunately she was late by 5 minutes, the school teacher sent her back with the intention of degrading the Arunthathiyar community children purposefully. On her way back, on a lone road some miscreants belonging to the caste Hindu community, kidnapped Punitha and brutally raped and killed the girl who was barely a teenager in her adolescent and she had not yet attained puberty. The miscreants who committed this heinous crime behaved in an animal fashion even though they were fully aware they are purposefully committing this act on small child belonging to the Arunthathiyar community.
The postmortem was conducted in the Sathyamanagalam Gov. Hospital and police complaint was also filed in the Sathyamanagalam police station. But till date, nobody was arrested which shows the lack of respect for the community and womanhood. Due to the above situation, children from the Arunthathiyar community are frighten to go school.

Arunthathiyer Girl children forcly used in toilet clean
Arunthathiyer Girl children forcly used in toilet clean
In Tamilandu, Villankuruchi village is situated in the Coimbatore north Taluk, there is a government middle school where about 350 children are studying and 9 teachers are working. There are 13 toilets in the school for use of teachers and children. In the above scenario, for the past many years, Arunthathiyar ( a dalit sub caste ) children only have to clean the toilets in the morning and evening. With scant respect for their health and education by the school head master and teachers who forcibly asked the Arunthathiyar community students to do this despicable work.
The Arunthathiyar community children complained to their parents regarding this injustice which was happening to them for a long time. Some of the parents went to the school to meet the head master and complain. The headmistress Ms.Filomina and teacher Ms.Umamaheswari ( belonging to Pallar caste – sub caste of Dalits) got angry and abused the parents and beat the children who reported this incident mercilessly by locking them in a class room and also by physical torture. They also threatened the parents by telling them that they will dismiss their children from school and ruin their life and future.
On 31-7-08, About 90 affected children with their parents approached the Coimbatore District collector personally and presented a petition regarding the atrocities happening to their community, for more than half-an-hour. They also requested the department take action against the school head master and teacher. The collector also promised to take action against the erring headmistress and teacher. A formal police complaint was also filed vide u/s 323 3(1) (x) SC/ST PA Act, FIR No. 178/2008, Dated 31.7.2008 in the kovil palayam police station which is near the concerned school in Coimbatore.
Due to the interference of the upper caste party politicians and also upper caste government officials no action has been taken against the school headmistress and the teacher till date. And they have not been arrested till yet.
