BJP will ensure SC community’s development with dignity: Jagdish Bhagat

Jammu, June 18: BJP will ensure SCs development with dignity while working sincerely for their grass root level upliftment, this was stated by State President of BJP’s Anusuchit Jaati (SC) Morcha, Jagdish Bhagat, while he addressed a press conference at the Party Headquarter, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu.

BJP Senior leader Narsingh Das Rajwal, Morcha State Vice President Dharam Pal, Morcha State General Secretaries Dharminder Kumar and Karan Bhagat also accompanied Morcha State President while elaborating on the issue.

While addressing the Press Conference, Jagdish Bhagat pointed out that BJP has always been on the forefront while airing voice to uplift the status of Anusuchit Samaaj. He said that recurrent Centre and State Governments headed by Congress have always done opportunistic politics on the issues of SCs. He alleged that Congress have made the SCs bleed on multiple occasions to use them as vote bank. He accused that Congress has deliberately kept the neglected community underprivileged following “use and throw” policy.

Bhagat welcomed the judgement from Double Bench of Supreme Court, in which hon’ble Supreme Court has enabled the Centre government to consider the issue of “Reservation in Promotion” on its own as “in accordance with the law” as the Centre earlier submitted that due to separate verdicts by different high courts on the reservations in promotions, the whole issue has been on standstill. He also welcomed the formation of committees from Council of Ministers to look into the matter.

Bhagat further said that only BJP has always taken up the core issues of community on the frontfront truly like Reservation in Promotion, Implementation in Atrocities Act and Reservation in U.G.C. He said that now BJP MLAs will take up the issue strongly in the State Assembly as well so that the community living in the state could also be benefitted on various fronts especially in education and employment. He expressed faith that the state government will take up the matter on priority for its early implementation in the state.

Ashok Gandhi, Seema Devi, Bhushan, Bishnu, Janaki Devi, Shakti, Santosh Devi and others were also present during the Press Conference.
