Lucknow: Starting today, BJP to organise ‘sammelans’ for Dalit sub-castes

Lucknow | Wednesday | 21st November, 2018

Summary:

Starting Wednesday, the state BJP will organise ‘sammelans’ to reach out to sub-castes of the Dalit community to inform them about how the Adityanath government “has worked towards their benefit, while others have just talked about it”, said BJP MP Kaushal Kishore. After a convention for Jatavs in Lucknow on Wednesday, the party will hold ‘sammelans’ of Katerias, Gaurs, Musahars and Bahelias on November 24. The BJP has already had such meetings with various OBC sub-castes in the state. Advertising“Be it the mission of Ambedkar or Ram Manohar Lohia, it is only BJP that has worked on it. Dividing them into sub-castes will not serve any purpose,” said Bhagwati Chaudhary, in-charge of the party’s Scheduled Caste department..
