espite assurances by the Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit that northeast students would be protected in her state… the pass of events do not echo the CM’s promises… It has once again brought out the racial discrimination on the northeast students. Once again a girl from Manipur had to face the wrath of Delhi miscreants and landowners. According to the North East Support Centre & Helpline, the girl was beaten up and molested by neighbours of her Murnika, New Delhi rented house last evening. The police are yet to take action against the culprits. The racial discrimination against northeast people continues in the national capital Delhi… the latest incident involving a Naga girl from Manipur staying in a rented house at Murnika. She was allegedly beaten up badly by her landlady’s son over a trifle matter. According to the victim and her elder sister, apart from the landlady, her son and husband, even neighbours joined the miscreants to beat up the girl and molest her. Her clothes were also torn. They also told NETV that the miscreants threatened to chase all Manipuris out of Murnika. Northeast Support Centre and Helpline immediately reported the matter to the police and to the media in the northeast. Talking to NETV in Delhi, the spokesperson of the organization M. Madhu Chandra said that the victim was rushed to the hospital and the matter reported the police. Meanwhile, the police only tried to colour the incident as ordinary landlord-tenant matter. When the matter was reported to the Vasant Kunj police station, they were told that the other party had also countered their complaint with the allegation of rape attempt by the younger brother of the victim. With such incidents of harassments and racial discrimination being reported from time to time, the students are having to go through a harrowing time. Their dream of better and advanced education is only turning into a nightmare in Delhi.
