In a shocking display of class prejudice, villagers in martyred constable Vir Singh’s village in Nagla Kewal in Shikohabad, Firozabad district refused to allow public land to be used for the cremation. Vir Singh was one of the eight CRPF jawans killed in the militant attack in Pampore, Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday.

Gram Pradhan, Vijay Singh of Kanthari Gram Panchayat told TOI: "In the morning, the local villagers had raised objections over martyred soldier's family's demand to cremate his body on public land and then erect a statue of him. But later, after long hours of talk with SDM, the villagers agreed to respect the family demand." Even after that, only a 10*10 metre land was given for the funeral. Vir Singh's family is obviously shocked with this apathy, where caste considerations eclipsed respect towards a slain jawan.

Vir Singh was the sole bread earner of his family and had joined the CRPF in 1981. His family stays in a one room home with a tin shed as a roof and he has three children who are still studying.

Acc. to Indian hindus, he may have sacrificed his life for the country but that does not mean he becomes equal to the upper castes.

BS story . Dispute was about land for erection of statue . Also the name suggest the martry must be an upper caste Kshatriya himself .

Irony dies a death by 'thousand cuts' when Pakistanis, fresh from their celebration in other threads of the death of Indian soldiers killed by their own insurgents, come to this thread riding their high horses of morality, to shed their tears for the same soldier not getting land for funeral!

Never mind the fact that the news itself is mostly bogus!
