Mayawati Alleges Atrocities Committed Against The Weaker Section Everyday In UP

The BSP chief further alleged that people from backward classes are unable to avail the benefits given to them in the Constitution

Mumbai: Hitting out at the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati on Monday said that atrocities are being committed against the weaker section of society every day.

Addressing a press conference on Ambedkar’s death anniversary, Mayawati highlighted Dr BR Ambedkar struggle for the upliftment of Dalits and minorities and slammed the Yogi-led government for manipulating media.

Mayawati said, “No day goes when atrocities are not committed against those from the weaker sections in the State. We don’t see many media reports on such incidents. The state government knows how to manage the media.”

The BSP chief further alleged that people from backward classes are unable to avail the benefits given to them in the Constitution drafted by him due to the apathy of casteist governments at the Centre and States.

“Dr BR Ambedkar struggled for the upliftment of Dalits, tribals, backward classes, minorities and the neglected. Today, they are unable to avail the benefits given to them in the Constitution drafted by him due to the apathy of casteist governments at Centre and States,” she said.

Babasaheb Ambedkar was an Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer who campaigned against social discrimination towards the untouchables (Dalits) and supported the rights of women and workers. In 1990, Ambedkar was conferred with the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award.
