A young woman named Pravalika from the Dalit community was very badly hurt in a terrible incident.
She sadly passed away on December 17.
The head of a special government group, Mr. Bakki Venkataiah, visited her family to say he was sorry and to promise that the government would help them.
He gave them some money to help, and said more money would come soon.
He also promised to find them a better place to live and a job to help them.
