Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh, the ideological mentor of Bharatiya Janata Celebration, on Monday clearly indicated its help to the caste census, however added a rider saying that the census shouldn’t be used as ‘a political software.’ On the finish of the three-day Samanwaya Baithak (coordination assembly) between RSS and its frontline outfits, Sunil Ambekar, prachar pramukh (publicity in-charge) of RSS informed a press convention: “For the welfare of communities or castes that are lagging behind, which require particular consideration, authorities wants statistics, and it’s a well-established observe. It was carried out previously and could be carried out once more, however it must be meant just for the welfare of those communities and castes, and it shouldn’t be used as a political software for elections. We wish to put this as a line of warning for everybody.”
Opposition events, significantly the Congress, had been demanding caste census, and there are indications that the Centre would possibly quickly take a name on caste census situation. However the query stays whether or not the Centre will put caste census statistics in public area? Whereas Lalu Prasad’s Rashtriya Janata Dal welcomed the RSS step, it additionally demanded that caste census and caste-based reservation have to be included within the Ninth Schedule of Structure. RJD chief Tejashwi Yadav goes to take out “Aabhar (thanksgiving) Yatra” in Bihar from September 10, however the goal is to place BJP and its ally JD-U in a nook.
Samajwadi Celebration chief Akhilesh Yadav stated caste census alone can guarantee improvement of all sections of society. The Congress, nonetheless, questioned the RSS spokesperson’s commentary that caste census might additionally pose a hazard to social unity. “It means RSS is brazenly opposing caste census”, the social gathering stated. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge stated, “RSS ought to clearly inform the nation whether or not it’s for or in opposition to caste census. Is the Sangh Parivar, which helps Manu Smriti instead of our Structure, actually involved about giving illustration to our backward, poor, and exploited courses?”
RSS has taken the identical stand which Chirag Paswan’s LJP(R) has taken. It desires caste census to be undertaken however the figures shouldn’t be revealed. It desires the figures for use just for making welfare plans for these castes, which have been left behind within the march in the direction of progress. Whether or not it’s Akhilesh Yadav, or Tejashwi Yadav, or Rahul Gandhi, all of them insist on caste census as a way to know the socio-economic situations of all castes. However when the RSS stated the identical factor, it’s being dubbed as “anti-reservation”.
The technique of opposition leaders appears to be fairly clear. They’ll first demand caste census, after which demand that the figures be made public. They’ll then demand proportional illustration for castes by taking shelter behind the slogan, “Jiski Jitni Sankhya Bhaari, Uski Utni Hissedari”. They’ll demand mountaineering the reservation restrict, citing the instance of Tamil Nadu. The only real goal is to play vote-bank politics. By extending help to caste census, the RSS has uncovered the actual technique of the opposition events.
