Lucknow, Apr 20 (PTI) Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Mahasabha today
demanded convening of a special session of Parliament to discuss the
issue of reservation, and asked for a job to a member of each dalit
family. The Mahasabha also announced to organise a national convention
in the State capital, to discuss the problems being faced by dalits.
"With an objective of providing a national platform on the issue of
dalit reservation, a convention would be held in Lucknow on April 24,"
president of the Mahasabha Lalji Prasad Nirmal said. A national debate
on reservation is needed for which a special session of the Parliament
should be called, Nirmal said. "Dr Ambedkar made several provisions
for dalits in the Constitution, but a national movement is needed to
ensure its implementation," added the Mahasabha president. He said
that the Mahasabha would constitute a think tank which would identify
the problems being faced by dalits. "A job to one member of each dalit
family in government and private sector is what we want," said
