Paswan for reservation for economically-backward

STAFF WRITER 16:50 HRS IST
Patna, Dec 30 (PTI) Lok Janshakti Party supremo Ramvilas Paswan today
called for ensuring reservation for 'economically-backward' people
among the upper castes.

"We stick to the demand for ensuring reservation for the
economically-backward among upper castes in jobs," Paswan told
reporters, while ridiculing Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's announcement
that his government would give either three decimal of land or Rs
20,000 in cash to each dalit family.

"We will like Kumar to publish a list of the dalits, who have received
benefits under the scheme," he said.

The LJP supremo also said that his party would ensure reservation for
economically-backward among upper castes and provide one bigha of land
for each dalit family, if voted to power in the 2010 assembly polls.
