Members of Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) staged a demonstration here on Friday condemning the recent clash that broke between Dalits and Vanniyars in Arakkonam which resulted in the death of two Dalit youth and three of their friends getting injured.
They demanded the government to provide a financial assistance of ₹ 50 lakh to the families of the deceased.
