‘BJP govt in Gujarat neglecting welfare of backward classes’
Gujarat Congress on Wednesday organised ‘Swabhiman Dharna’ for the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and OBC communities, alleging that the BJP government in the state was ignoring their wellbeing.
“This arrogant BJP government is snatching away rights of schedule castes, scheduled tribes and other backward classes so that they do not progress,” said the state Congress chief Bharatsinh Solanki.
“Congress governments in Gujarat had created 20 boards and corporations for the welfare of backward classes. The BJP government is not giving them funds, due to which these organisations are not able to carry out any developmental works for the backward classes,” Solanki said at the protest venue.
“These communities are not beggars. They are asking for their rights and respect in the society.”
