Hyderabad: The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has registered a case on the incident of attack on Hindus in Bhainsa town of Nirmal district in Telangana.
The Commission registered a case following a complaint lodged with it by a Hyderabad-based advocate K Karuna Sagar.
In a statement here on Wednesday, Karuna Sagar said that the Commission has taken the complaint on its file on February 12.
In his complaint, the advocate explained to the Commission how a targeted attack was mounted against the houses of the minority Hindus in the Bhainsa town and burned their houses.
He said the mob of about 1000 had also pelted stones on the burning houses to prevent the dwellers from coming out of the house. "With an intention to kill them by burning alive, the mob has looted and burnt belongings and also two-wheelers belonging to Hindus, the incident continued till 10 am next morning, of the incident took place on January 12," he said.
That apart, the mob further pelted stones on policemen to prevent them from coming to the area, resulting in total damage of 18 Hindu houses and belongings including, their clothes, documents, schoolbooks, utensils, grocery, etc. There is partial damage to 40 Hindu houses, total damage of about 70 two-wheelers and auto-rickshaws.
The attack also left several policemen injured, which resulted in Hindus go without food and shelter, and subjecting the innocent Hindus under fear, agony and threat to their life and property.
He said the Hindus in the area are leaving their houses, which is a direct violation of basic fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution of India.
Against this backdrop, he sought the intervention of the NHRC and directed the Chief Secretary of Telangana state to take appropriate steps to compensate the Hindu victim families to repair and rebuild their damaged houses. Also, urged the State DGP to provide security to the victimized Hindu families in the Bhainsa town.
