Summary:
We are demanding this division since long as it was one of the preconditions in the agreement between BJP and SBSP when the alliance was finalised before 2014 LS polls,” said Rajbhar.SBSP’s statewide protests will start from Shastri Ghat in Varanasi on December 24, after which all district units will stage sit-ins till December 31. Regarding BJP’s bid to promote Anil Rajbhar as his alternative, he said, “Nobody can show light to sun by keeping an earthen lamp in his hand.” The SBSP chief said if the BSP and SP will join hands to contest Lok Sabha 2019 polls, the BJP will land in serious trouble.“The only way to make BSP-SP alliance ineffective is the division of OBC quota in three categories. VARANASI: BJP ally Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) will launch a statewide agitation against the ‘delay’ in fulfilling its demand to divide 27% OBC quota in Pichhada, Ati-Pichhada and Sarvadhik Pichhada sections, just days before PM Narendra Modi releases a postal stamp on Rajbhars’ iconic king Maharaja Suheldev to woo the fraternity in Ghazipur on December 29.“Now PM is being sent to challenge me for wooing Rajbhar votes,” SBSP president and UP minister Om Prakash Rajbhar said here on Monday while announcing to launch the stir from December 24 to 31.Reiterating to boycott BJP’s event in Ghazipur on December 29 where Modi is scheduled to release the stamp, the SBSP chief made it clear that “like BSP and SP, the core vote base of his party can’t be influenced by anyone”.On December 9, BJP leader and UP minster of state (independent charge) Anil Rajbhar had confirmed that Modi will visit Ghazipur on December 29 to release a postal stamp on Maharaja Suheldeo and address a rally of Rajbhar fraternity on the ITI ground..
