More than 100 members of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and progressive organisations staged a protest in Thingalur near Erode on Monday (October 12, 2026), demanding action against officials over the alleged humiliation of Scheduled Caste people during a dispute over a burial in Perumbali village. The protesters also urged the authorities to declare Thingalur and Madathupalayam village panchayats areas affected by untouchability.
