BJP has attacked the rights of Dalits and backward classes |
Former minister and Jhajjar Congress MLA Geeta Bhukkal has accused the ruling BJP of attacking the rights of Dalits and backward classes. She has said that the basic ideology of BJP and RSS is anti-Dalit and anti-backward. That is why it is opposing the caste census. Geeta Bhukkal was talking to the media after meeting the Congress workers of the constituency at her residence.
She said that RSS had also opposed the constitution of Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar which gave reservation to Dalits and also the Mandal Commission which gave reservation to backward classes. Even today, the leaders and workers of RSS and BJP are running an anti-reservation agenda, because these people cannot see the empowerment of Dalits and backward classes. When Rahul Gandhi demanded caste census in the Parliament of the country, the panic of BJP leaders came in front of everyone. Along with this, the real face of BJP was exposed in front of the public.
Geeta Bhukkal said that today every section including Dalit, backward, poor general class and minority is supporting the caste census because it will tell who has what share in the population and who has what share in the government, politics and economy of the country. This will help in ensuring proper representation of all sections.
She also said that to end the reservation of backward classes in Haryana, BJP reduced the OBC creamy layer from 8 to 6 lakh.
This government has also closed five thousand schools teaching poor, farmer, SC and OBC children. Not only this, the present government has also stopped the Congress government’s scheme of giving scholarship and 100-yard plots to the children of deprived classes.
