Reservation for SC, ST is a right nobody can take away: PM

March 21, 2016

New Delhi, Mar 21: Reservation for the Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribes and the marginalised in the country will remain untouched, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said when he delivered the Ambedkar Memorial Lecture after he laid the foundation stone for a state-of-the-art memorial for the Dalits' rights crusader in New Delhi.

Highlights

Babasaheb was the voice of the marginalised. He is a Vishwa Manav. Only talking about him with respect to India is injustice to him: PM

The way Sardar Patel worked for Political unification, Baba Saheb Ambedkar worked for social unification: PM Modi

Few people know about the reason why Dr. Ambedkar had to resign from ministry? This part of history is either forgotten or diluted: PM

When issue of equal rights to women came up, Babasaheb was clear that if women don't get equal rights I cant be a part of the ministry: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers, he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

There is a bill oB waterways in Parliament but let me tell you this vision is of Dr. Ambedkar. He believed in India's maritime strength: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers; he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

When Vajpayee ji became PM, sections started saying reservation will go. He was PM for two terms nothing of that sort happened. Nothing has ever happened to the reservation for Dalits, tribals, where we are in power but still this lies is spread to mislead. This is a right that nobody can snatch: PM speaks on reservations for SC, ST and marginalised communities: Modi

I have got an opportunity to fulfil Baba Saheb's dream. He left us in 1956. Today, after 60 years, a memorial is being set up: PM Modi

60 years have passed! I don't know how we can explain this, but we have had to wait for 60 years for this: PM Modi

New Delhi, Jan 22: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday said Indian values consider all religions equal, and that is why the country is secular and never became a theocratic state like Pakistan.

Speaking at the NCC Republic Day Camp in Delhi, Singh said: "We (India) said we would not discriminate among religions. Why did we do that? Our neighbouring country has declared that their state has a religion. They have declared themselves a theocratic state. We didn't declare so."

"Even America is a theocratic country. India is not a theocratic country. Why? Because our saints and seers did not just consider the people living within our borders as part of the family, but called everyone living in the world as one family," the minister said.

Singh underlined that India had never declared its religion would be Hindu, Sikh or Buddhist and people of all religions could live here.

"They gave the slogan of 'Vasudev Kutumbakam' -- the whole world is one family. This message has gone to the whole world from here only," he added.

Very thoughtful and eye-catching statement by Defense Minister, Rajnath Singh.

Sir, I kindly request you to convey this beautiful message to your Party’s comrades, who are deprived of this dosage for long times and are badly need of this.  

Also, for those from your Party, who are, time and again, spitting the venomous rhetoric against Dalits, Muslims, Christians and others alike.

Yashwant Sinhaji is now doing a wonderful job in this regard.

You will also follow his suit for sure in the days to come; that’s what your honest statement indicates.
