The Supreme Court Friday asked the Punjab and Haryana High Court to look into issues of rehabilitation and relocation of displaced members of the Dalit community from a violence-hit village in Haryana.

The court transferred to HC a PIL seeking rehabilitation of Dalit community members from Mirchpur in Haryana’s Rohtak district. The victims were displaced after a 70-year-old man and his physically-challenged daughter died after members of the dominant Jat community attacked the village in 2010.
