BJP MP writes to PM Modi; says ‘In 4 years of rule, the govt hasn’t done anything for Dalits’


Nagina (UP), Apr 7 (Agencies): Days after massive Dalit protests jolted the entire country, Bharatiya Janta Party MP from Uttar Pradesh wrote to PM Modi complaining that ‘In 4 years of rule, the government hasn’t done anything for the Dalits’.

Yashwant Singh, who is an MP from Nagina in his letter addressed various issues related to Dalits to PM Modi, “Being a Dalit my capabilities have not been put to use, I only became an MP because of reservation” the letter read.

He further added saying, “In 4 years the govt has done nothing for the 30 crore Dalits of the country.”

These serious allegations have raised several eyebrows inside the party, and have left many grinning outside party.

No reaction has been given by BJP on the same so far.

    The BJP came to power with the slogan of ‘Sab ka sath Sab ka vikas’ but in practice, the governance of the country has become ‘Punjipati ka Sath Vanchiton ka Vinash'. Modi went around saying that he was from the ‘pichhda varg’ (backward class) and played with identity politics. But all this was done just to get votes. All his promises have only been election jumlas.
    The marginalised communities - Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes along with the minorities - have been on the receiving end in these three years. They have been given less priority than the ‘cow’. But none of the misdeeds of the present regime are part of the discussions in the media.

    Despite robust laws, violence against India’s most oppressed people continues to rise.

    According to the National Crime Records Bureau, crime against Dalits ranging from rape, murder, beatings, and violence related to land matters increased by 29 percent from 2012 to 2014. In 2014, 47,064 cases of crimes against Dalits were registered, up from 39,408 in 2013 and 33,655 in 2012.
    Recent figures for Rajasthan, the state with the highest rate of atrocities committed against Dalits, indicate that this violence continues to rise. Between April 2015 and March 2016, 617 severe incidents were registered by the Centre for Dalit Rights in Jaipur, the only organization in Rajasthan monitoring these atrocities. It should be noted that these numbers are the tip of the iceberg. Among them, 161 cases related to land disputes, 127 cases included violence against women and rape; and 97 were physical assaults. In 2014-2015, 566 cases had been reported.
    2017 on track to be worst-ever year for cow-related violence.
    The Hindutva forces have been emboldened since BJP came to power. The above quoted claim made during the election campaign is far from reality. As one of the victims of Saharanpur violence said, “We are Hindus for the elections and after that we become untouchables.”
    This MP is realised late. But the truth is in open.
