UP: Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati has also questioned the attitude of the Indian National Congress Party on the Supreme Court’s decision regarding the creamy layer in SC ST reservation. The BSP supremo said that Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge is trying to give credit to Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi for reservation, but in reality all the credit goes to Baba Saheb Ambedkar. She accused the Congress of speaking evasively on this issue.
BSP supremo Mayawati, while targeting the Congress, wrote on Instagram – ‘After the BSP press conference yesterday, I got to know about the statement given by the National President of the Congress Party, due to which the credit for reservation has been given to Pandit Nehru and Gandhiji and not Baba Saheb Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar in the statement of the Congress Party before the ST-ST, in which there is not even an iota of truth.
Mayawati launched a scathing attack on Congress
Mayawati said, in reality the entire credit for reservation goes to Baba Saheb Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, whom the Congress people conspired to prevent from entering the Constituent Assembly and also defeated him in the elections. He was also forced to resign from the post of Law Minister. The National President of Congress said that before revealing the party’s stand regarding sub-classification of SC and ST classes in the country, his party will consult NGOs and lawyers etc., which makes it clear that Congress is in favour of sub-classification.
BSP supremo Mayawati alleged that ‘Congress has also spoken in a vague manner about the creamy layer. Despite Congress having 99 MPs, no voice was raised in Parliament till the adjournment to nullify the decision of the Supreme Court, whereas this party has won these seats in the name of saving the Constitution and reservation.
‘Why are they not showing the constitution now’
Earlier, the BSP supremo had targeted the Samajwadi Party and the Congress while addressing a press conference on this issue on Saturday. She said that now these people are not showing the constitution to anyone. Now these people of the Congress Party and Company are not talking about reservation. Because they betrayed and cheated these people in this election. They were told that we will save the constitution…your reservation will end…why are they silent now?
