PM Modi, RSS strengthening wall obstructing path of SCs, STs, OBCs: Rahul Gandhi
Deccan ChronicleNew Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the RSS were strengthening the wall obstructing the path of Dalits, Adivasis and OBCs, even as he acknowledged that the efforts of the UPA government to bring down that wall were not sufficient. "If PM Modi would have read this book then what he does daily, he would not do it," Gandhi said, displaying a copy of the Constitution of India. He said a wall obstructs the path of Dalits, Adivasis and OBCs as he accused Modi and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh -- the ideological mentor of the BJP -- of strengthening that wall by "adding cement to it". Midway through his address, Gandhi's microphone stopped working and when it came back Gandhi said "whoever talks about tribals, Dalits and poor people in the country, his mic goes off". Gandhi said 90 per cent of the people of this country are facing injustice every day and the way to end this injustice is through caste census and removal of the 50 per cent limit on reservation.
