Some untouchables won´t put up with the ill treatment and injustices after the floodings in Bihar, India. Armed with sticks they put up road blockages, burning tires and wood, stopping the traffic for days. They demand equal rights for both dalits and non-dalits. A representative from the government has been sent to assure the indignant crowd that they will recieve relief material the next day.
