BHOPAL: Bhim Army chief Chandrashekhar Azad warned chief minister Kamal Nath of aggressive agitation if cases registered against Dalits were not withdrawn speedily.
“We will teach Congress government a good lesson if it fails to withdraw all cases registered against Dalits during April 2, 2018 agitation,” said Azad addressing a rally to protest against CAA and NRC at Iqbal Maidan here on Tuesday.
The MP government was portraying itself as Dalit friendly, but the speed at which they are withdrawing cases against dalits speaks something else, he added.
“CM should pay attention, if timely action is not taken we will come back again in bigger strength. You should now do one thing that is to expand the size of the Bhopal jail,” Azad said in warning tone.
The Bhim Army chief also demanded cases against upper caste people who allegedly pelted stones on a procession taken out on the occasion of Ravidas Jayanti in Tikamgarh.
Whoever try to suppress the Dalits, they will be turned into zero, said the outfit chief. Flaying Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, the Bhim Army chief said that BJP government was trying to divide the society and rule the nation. He alleged that BJP was trying to sabotage the voting rights of the Muslims and Dalits.
Every citizen should boycott the NPR, but they should offer tea to officers coming to collect details, said Azad. He also termed those chief ministers as traitors who were permitting to conduct National Population Register in their state.
