In a tragic incident that shook the nation, the murder of Pranay Perumalla in Telangana has brought the issue of caste-based violence to the forefront. Pranay, a Dalit man, was brutally killed in front of his wife, Amrutha Varshini, who belongs to an upper-caste family. The incident has sparked outrage and calls for justice across the country. Pranay’s father, Balaswamy, has been vocal about the need to end caste discrimination and violence. He has urged authorities to take strict action against the perpetrators and ensure that such heinous crimes are not repeated. The case has once again highlighted the deep-rooted caste prejudices that exist in Indian society and the violence that stems from it. Caste-based discrimination continues to be a major issue in India, despite legal provisions against it. The tragic loss of Pranay has reignited conversations about the need for social reform and the eradication of caste-based discrimination. As the nation mourns the loss of a promising young life, there are growing calls for unity and solidarity across all castes to put an end to such senseless violence. It is imperative for society to come together and work towards building a more inclusive and egalitarian future for all its citizens. The legacy of Pranay’s untimely death should serve as a wake-up call for the nation to address the deep-seated issues of casteism and discrimination that continue to plague Indian society.
