*Political power comes only by our ideological clarity. Don’t fall for BJP-RSS: CM Siddaramaiah’s appeal.
*There is no entry to RSS sanctum sanctorum for Shudras-Dalits-Women: CM Siddaramaiah.
*Deve Gowda,who said he would leave the country if Modi becomes PM, is now saying that he has an inseparable bond with Modi: CM quips.
Chief Minister Siddaramaiah clearly said that he will not join BJP even if he is offered to be made President or Prime Minister.
He was speaking at the meeting of SC-ST activists and leaders held at the District Congress office to seek votes for Lok Sabha candidate M.Laxman.
The CM said that political power comes only when we have an ideological clarity.People should not fall for BJP-RSS.
Shudras-Dalits and Women are not allowed inside the RSS sanctum sanctorum.
Deve Gowda,who had said that he would leave the country if Modi became the Prime Minister,is now saying that he has an inseparable bond with Modi.He also said that politicians should have ideological clarity.
BJP and RSS are against social justice.Therefore they do not like reservation.Reservation is not alms.It is the right of the oppressed communities.Reservation should exist as long as caste system exists in the society,he said.
The CM said that before independence and British period,did we,the Shudras have the right to study? Did women have any rights?.
A woman had to burn herself alive immediately after the death of her husband.Such inhuman practises inspired by Manusmriti were prohibited by our constitution.
Therefore,they want to bring back the Manusmirthi by making amendments to the constitution.The CM appealed to the people to understand this properly.
Shudras,Dalits and women are not allowed inside the sanctum sanctorum.Senior BJP leaders like Nanje Gowda and BJP leader Gulihatti Shekhar have also openly said that they were not allowed inside the sanctum sanctorum of the RSS.This is the truth.
The Shudras are just being used.Therefore,Shudras, Dalits and women should not join to RSS,he said.
The CM asked ‘should we not criticise the JDS which has now joined hands with the RSS? Congress passed the law to allocate money in the budget according to the Dalit population.
Our government has enacted a law that 24.1% of development funds should be set aside.This progressive law has not been implemented by any BJP government in the country.
Only our Congress government has done it.He also said that the community should be aware of all these facts.
The CM said that it was our Congress government that implemented reservation for Dalits in contracts.Is it not the same BJP that opposed the Mandal report and the reservation for backward classes?.
The SCP/ TSP Act was enacted by the Congress Government.Therefore, the CM appealed to the people to make Congress candidate M.Laxman win,instead of supporting those who provoke you emotionally and threatens the lives of poor.
Social Welfare Minister,HC Mahadevappa,KPCC Working President Tanveer Seth and Lok Sabha candidate Laxman and leaders of SC/ST wing of KPCC were present on the stage.
