The National Commission for Scheduled Castes will hear the complaint filed by athlete and coach Santhi Soundarajan who alleged caste and gender harassment by a colleague in the Sports Development Authority of Tamil Nadu. The hearing will be held at the State Guest House in Chepauk on the 22nd of October.

As the case is very sensitive in nature it will require a thorough investigation said the Vice Chairman of the NCSC. The Commission has also asked the State authorities to send circulars to all government schools to ensure that cooks employed by them are not harassed on any ground. This direction comes in the wake of reports of a Dalit cook being harassed in Salem district.
