National Executive Member Dr. Nirmal Singh alleged that the state government continues discrimination with scheduled Castes in such as including appointments and regularization of ReT officials where there is no reservation. He also described it as a violation of the provision of Indian Constitution founded by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar.


Chief Spokesperson Dr. Jitendra Singh said that the failure of Dalit class to receive its due is in fact a part of the failure of socialistic dream seen by the founding fathers of this nation at the time of independence. Describing Dr. Ambedkar as the author of the greatest “Granth” of independent India namely the constitution of India, he said that salvation lies in economic prosperity and education because an educated economically independent class can never be subordinated by social or caste prejudices.
