Answered by subitha9

The 1989 Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act was formed in response to the demands made by Dalits and others that the Government take seriously to protect them against the ill-treatment and humiliation faced by Dalits and tribal groups in their everyday life. Rathnam’s hut was burnt and he was forced to leave the village along with his mother and other members of his family as they continued to be ostracised by the powerful castes in the village.
So Rathnam used the above law to file a complaint to protest against the domination and violence of the powerful castes in his village.

subitha9: The Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes Prevention of Atrocities Act, 1989 seeks to punish those who humiliates or ill-treats the member of dalit or tribal groups. Rathnam sought the support of law, failing his complaint under the above Act to protect against the domination and violence of the powerful castes in his village.
