PTI | 09:11 PM,Nov 30,2011
Mumbai, Nov 30 (PTI) Republican Party of India (RPI) president Ramdas
Athawale today warned of an agitation if the Indu Mills land in
central Mumbai is not allotted for the construction of a memorial for
Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar. "The entire 1,250 acre of (mill) land should be
allotted for the construction of a memorial for Dr Ambedkar," he told
reporters here. If the land is not allotted by December 6, which is
also the death anniversary of Dr Ambedkar, RPI would launch a protest
against the Maharashtra government from December 13, he said. Athawale
demanded that the government constitute a committee for designing of
the memorial. On the party's seat-sharing for the ensuing BMC polls
with Shiv Sena and BJP, Athawale said, "Discussions on 25 seats for
the RPI have been finalised but further talks over five more seats are
on with senior BJP leader Gopinath Munde, BJP state president Sudhir
Mungantiwar and Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray."
