SCs 'ignored' in HPCC list
http://www.tribuneindia.com/20001110/haryana.htm#8 ROHTAK, Nov 9 - The Haryana Guru Ravidas Samaj Mahasabha has alleged that Scheduled Castes and Backward Classes have been ignored while preparing the list of delegates of the Haryana Pradesh Congress Committee. Mr Ram Mehar, president of the Mahasabha, in a letter to AICC President Sonia Gandhi, has alleged that the representation given to SCs and BCs is not commensurate with their strength in the state. He has said the discrimination has generated an "aversion" among these communities towards the party. He has said the votes of Jats, SCs and BCs in the state totalled 25 lakh, 22 lakh and 15 lakh, respectively. However, the names of only two BC delegates figured in the HPCC list. |
