In the wake of the nationwide shutdown call given by Dalits that are protesting against the Supreme Court verdict on the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, a clash broke out between the protestors and police in Jharkhand, Agra on Monday. Trains have been blocked in various states, while shops are also being forced to shut. Meanwhile, in the face of stiff pressure from both within the NDA and opposition, Union Law Ministry has decided to file a review petition in the Supreme Court on the Schedule Caste and Schedule Tribe Prevention of Atrocities Act verdict.
