AMRITSAR: Dalits resorted to vandalism at a busy Amritsar market on
Friday to avenge the death of a youth belonging to their community.

Police said Shankar Das was shot at near Beri Gate by some people who
alighted from the car of Bony Gill, a relative of SAD MLA Raminder
Singh Bularia, on Thursday.

On Friday, it was the height of police inaction at Hall Bazar when
cops stood as mute spectators, while Dalit youths, brandishing swords,
iron rods and hockey sticks went on rampage.

They smashed window panes, windscreens, threatened the public.As news
of rioting spread, scared shopkeepers downed the shutters.
