Mayawati demanded ban on RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal

Lucknow: , BSP supremo Mayawati on Sunday urged the Supreme Court to take strong action against them to protect secularism and demanded a ban on RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal.

The BSP supremo alleged organizations like RSS are indulging in “dirty politics behind the curtains on the basis of religion which is against the spirit of the Constitution” and so they should also be proscribed.

“These organizations decide the strategy, direction and even the names of Prime Minister and Chief Ministers of BJP,” Mayawati alleged.
On the Apex Court decision disallowing a person, who is in jail or in police custody, from contesting elections, Mayawati said that it could be misused and her party was not in its favour.

“My party is not in favour of preventing those in jail from contesting polls. The decision can be misused. The Centre should go for an appeal in this regard”, she said.

Mayawati said that social structure of the country was caste based and emerged from system of inequality. “The downtrodden were kept as slaves on the basis of socio-economic and educational basis, therefore Dr Ambedkar made provision of reservation in the Constitution,” she said.

Mayawati said that as objections were being raised on the manner of the campaign, it was being changed. “Now the party would organise social brotherhood rallies and sammelans in the name of Sarvsamaj, but the party will not stop from its campaign,” she said.

She said that BSP’s objective was to create a equitable society. “In that sense BSP is a social organization first and a political party later. It is for social change and the effort will continue till the time the goal to establish an equalitarian society is not achieved,” she said.
