JD(U) Leader Flays Cong for Condition of Dalits
PTI | Patna | Oct 16, 2011
Senior JD(U) leader Shivanand today alleged that Congress had done
nothing for the uplift of the dalits in the country.
"Congress has done precious little to ameliorate the condition of the
dalit people despite the fact that this section of the society has
been its votebank since independence," Tiwari told a seminar here.
Tiwari said it was deplorable that a section of the dalits were
cleaning human excreta and said that the governments should have done
something to end this inhuman practice.
Expressing happiness for the constitution of the Mahadalit Commission
in Bihar, he urged the government to set up a special fund dedicated
to development and welfare of dalit people.
