Police have registered a case against three people in Maharashtra’s Pune for allegedly boycotting a family from the Gawli community because one of its members had married outside the caste, an official said. A man and his family members had gone to attend the engagement ceremony of a relative last month, where a ‘panch’ of the Gawli community allegedly asked them to leave as the man’s son had asked a police officer on Monday, a police officer said. He was married to a woman of another caste. ,
Later, the man approached the Andhashraddha Nirmulan Samiti (an organization fighting against superstition) and lodged a police complaint, he said. The Dattawadi police in Pune on Monday registered a case against three people under the Maharashtra Protection of People from Social Boycott (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2016, the official said.
