Why is Narendra Modi not addressing the issue of Dalit protests in his home state of Gujarat? #Callous
For over two years now, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has led the Bharatiya Janata Party’s efforts to woo the Dalits and shed its upper caste image through the announcement of various schemes and the appropriation of Babasaheb Ambedkar’s legacy.
Modi travelled to Ambedkar’s birthplace Mhow on his 125th birth anniversary earlier this year for a special programme, laid the foundation stone for the Ambedkar National Memorial in Delhi, released commemorative coins on Ambedkar, visited Ambedkar’s House in London, unveiled a special scheme “Stand up India” to encourage Dalits to become entrepreneurs and convened a special session of Parliament last year to mark Constitution Day to pay tribute to Babasaheb. He followed these efforts with the induction of five Dalits to his council of ministers in the last Cabinet reshuffle.
And yet when Parliament erupted over the ongoing protests by Dalits in his home state Gujarat and the derogatory remarks made by a BJP office bearer against Bahujan Samaj Party leader Mayawati, Modi chose to remain silent and was absent during the debate on atrocities against Dalits in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday afternoon. He also did not feel it was necessary to put in an appearance in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday when the House was rocked by these twin developments.
