Manmohan mischief kills OBC reservation Bill ?

Bangalore: As already predicted several times, Manmohan Singh, with the help of Veerappa Moily, has played the mischief in the Bill to provide reservations to OBCs in central educational institutions.

The mischief is very well evident in the way the Bill was introduced on the last day of the Lok Sabha on Aug.25 before it was adjourned.

But the alert upper caste students, fully supported by the country’s higher judiciary and the media, have already started agitating against the Bill which has killed all hopes of the OBCs getting any justice.

The Bill will go before a parliamentary standing committee where it is expected to be made more lifeless.

SONIA LACKS CASTE KNOWLEDGE

The problem is Sonia Gandhi — being a new-comer to politics, a foreign-born Italian, besides being a woman — is yet to understand the tremendous importance of the Bill from her Congress Party’s view. With upper castes like Pranab Mukherji — a Bengali Brahmin —surrounding her, she is yet to indicate her mind. That is how anti-Backward people like Manmohan Singh are taking advantage of the situation.

But Sonia, who alone can steer the Congress to victory, is being misled by this coterie. She should have taken hints from the strong support given to the Bill by Backward leaders like Lalu Prasad, Karunanidhi, Sharad Pawar, Dr. Ramadoss etc. but her silence emboldened the upper caste mischief mongers to sabotage the Bill.

TO HELL WITH “KNOWLEDGE”

Manmohan’s mischief is very clear when he talked at the Aug.21 cabinet meeting about “knowledge strength” (Hindu Aug.23, 2006):

Three interventions by Manmohan Singh kept the discussion on an even keel. Dr. Singh was forthright in telling his Cabinet colleagues that they should not do anything that would destroy the country’s “knowledge strength”. His plea was not to upbend what had been achieved during the last 50 years in higher education and scientific research.

We know to which “knowledge strength”, he is referring to. It is our ruling upper caste merit-mongers who have made a mess of India. This English-educated upper castes (just 1% of our country’s population” got the best of education at the cost of the country’s exchequer and fled to Western countries, cursing India and sought the highly paid jobs.

INVENTOR OF HARSHAD METHA

These are the very people today financing Hindu terrorist organisations like RSS. Those who could not run away to West remained inside indulging in all sorts of anti-national activities.

The evidence of the country’s “knowledge strength” is reflected in the just published World Bank report (DV Edit Sept.1, 2006: “Rising social tensions will push India to more bloody violence: World Bank warning”). If this is the “knowledge strength” that the PM is referring to, the country would like to be saved from this calamity.

India’s 15% micro-minority upper castes have given enough evidence of their “knowledge strength” which has sapped the country’s energies and made it a failed state. We have written enough on its crimes and the only thing we can say at this stage is that the country will be very much better off without this “knowledge strength” which created demons like Harshad Mehta and Narendra Modi.

WEAKNESS OF OBCs

Dalit Sikhs kept out of Army ?

Nawanshahr: Mazhabi and Ramdasia Sikh caste youths aspiring to join the Sikh Light Infantry, which itself is a purely Dalit, are facing problems. Though reserved for the two Dalit Sikh castes, the caste certificates being issued to them by the government officials do not include the word Sikh with their castes, Mazhabi and Ramdasia.

This came to light here during an Army recruitment rally here recently. A number of aspirant youths had to go back as they were ineligible due to this technical error. Some said though they had been urging the officials to issue them caste certificate showing their caste as “Sikh Mazhabi” or “Sikh Ramdasia”, the officials had been refusing to do so as in a Punjab Government notification No.113-WG-51 dated Jan.15, 1951 signed by M.R. Sachdeva, then Chief Secretary, Punjab, and circulated to all administrative secretaries vide letter No. UO No. 3641 WG-1-51 dated June 2, 1951 mentioning certain castes for the purpose of issuing SC certificates, the word Sikh had not been mentioned with the castes Mazhabi and Ramdasia. However, some persons had manipulated to get the word “Sikh” added in their caste certificate. Ironically, about 34 years ago, the then secretary, Scheduled Castes and Backward Classes, Government of Punjab, vide letter number 5836-6 SW-69/26062 dated Nov. 26, 1969 had clarified that keeping in view the convenience of the persons the word “Sikh” could be added to the castes Mazhabi or Ramdasia as it did not in any way affect a caste certificate. But till now Mazhabi and Ramdasia Sikh youths have been suffering due to the adamant attitude of the officials.

Brig. Ajay Pahwa, DDG (recruitment), north, said this minor “technical problem” had been causing inconvenience to both the army and the unemployed youths aspiring to join the Army.
