Dalit Samaj members stage protest
JAMMU, Dec 20: Dalit, OBCs, Minorities and Adivasi (DOMA) Parisangh organized a demonstration at Ambedkar Chowk against the insulting remarks against Dr. B.R. Ambedkar by Home Minister Amit Shah on the floor of the Parliament.
A large number of DOMA Parisangh members and others participated in the protest and raised the slogans against Amit Shah. They claimed that Dalit Samaj will not tolerate insulting remarks against Baba Saheb Bhim Rao Ambedkar.
R K Kalsotra, State president of DOMA Parisangh, while addressing the demonstration said that the country will not tolerate the defaming remarks against Dr BR Ambedkar on the floor of the Parliament. He said Amit Shah has not said this in anger or emotionally, but years of hatred is revealed behind it.
Kalsotra further said the hateful statement by Amit Shah came because the first constitutional amendment was made for Dalits, tribals and the poor. If the Zamindari system had not been abolished, the landless Dalits, tribals and the poor would not have been able to get land, this is the main reason for their hatred. He alleged that BJP has been conspiring to end reservation by selling airports, ports, PSUs to Adani and big capitalists. Reservation was also ended through outsourcing and contractual system .
Other prominent who spoke were Narinder Khalsa. Tarsem Khullar, Mir Shahid Saleem, Kishore Kumar, Ashu Peter Mattoo, Bansi Lal Choudhary, Ramesh Sarmal, Suraj Parkash, Ch Rafat, Molvi Mudassar Raja and Dr Ramesh Kaith.
