Gadkari praises Rahul Gandhi for visiting Dalit households

Agencies Posted online: Thursday , Dec 24, 2009 at 1940 hrs
New Delhi : BJP President Nitin Gadkari had a word of praise for Rahul
Gandhi saying the young Congress leader is doing a good job in
spending time with Dalit families.

In reply to a question whether he felt Gandhi was visiting Dalit
households, sharing meals and spending nights with those family for
votebank politics, Gadkari said, "It's good, let him do it. My good
wishes are with him, if he is doing a good job."

Earlier, in his interaction with the media, the new BJP chief said he
did not believe in caste, sect or religion and contended there should
be no discrimination on the basis of these factors.

"I say this from the core of my heart. Our (people from different
religions) culture is the same," he said.

Though BJP believe in justice to all and appeasement of none, the
party is widely misunderstood, he lamented. Gadkari defined as a
"tragedy" the difference between BJP's "image" and the "reality".

He said his party believed in "rise of the last man in the queue (antyodaya)".
