Press Release
Reservation Day Declared and celebrated
New Delhi: August 7, 2006.
In a jampacked Talkatora Stadium, on the occasion of Reservation Day, Dr. Udit Raj today stated that former Prime Minister Shri V. P. Singh could have been honored like this long before what we are doing today. He stated that forces of social justice and progressive leaders like V. P. Singh former Prime Minister of India, A. B. Bardhan of CPI, Raj Babbar – MP and founder leader of Jan Morcha, Dr. Joseph D’souza – President of All India Christian Council and many more have all come together to further the cause of social justice.
All India Confederation of SC/ST Organisations and Indian Justice Party to make this day that is August 7 of each year as 'Reservation Day', the day of social justice when poor, deprived farmers and exploited come together and discuss their wretched conditions and devise ways to improve their conditions. Despite bad health of Shri V. P. Singh, he remained a crusader for poor, SC/STs, OBCs and JJ clusters.
The President of Indian Justice Party, Dr. Udit Raj, stated today that the Veerapa Moily Committee should be rejected. The Oversight Committee headed by him has recommended implementing reservation to OBCs in phases. Unfortunately, there are contradictions in Congress itself in so far as implementation of 27% reservation is concerned. However, HRD Minister, Arjun Singh's intention is clear that it should be implemented at one go. Dr. Udit Raj patted CPM, CPI and DMK for favoring the implementation of reservation at one go.
On 7th August, 1990, then Prime Minister, Shri V. P. Singh announced to implement the Mandal Commission Recommendations. The present reservation of 27 % is rooted in Mandal Commission. Dr. Udit Raj said that the Indian Justice Party will observe the Reservation Day on 7th August, every year. Former Prime Minister Shri V. P. Singh was honored on the occasion.
Dr. Joseph D’souza said in his speech, “Indian Dalits and Backward class communicates suffer social, political, economic injustice for centuries. They suffer injustice at the hands of Indian media power, Indian political power and those economic power holders. Only people who understand the plights of Indian Dalits and backward class communities can give justice to them.”
V. P. Singh in his concluding remark mentioned about Indian reservation system started way back with 3000 years old Hindu caste system. He says, “Designating education only to Brahmins, Ruling authority only to Kshetriyas, Trade only to Vaishyas, and labor only to Sudhras and Dalits.” Mr. Singh further said, “Injustice done to Indian Dalits and backward class communities are more a death penalties.”
People criticized V. P. Singh when he attempted to implement Reservation for backward class communities according to the recommendation of Mandal commission. Mr. Singh says, “Although my political leg was broken in 1990, the very ball I kicked scored the goal and the ball never came back and it is achieving its own goal.”
The All India Confederation of SC/ST Organizations is fighting for reservation in private Sector, which Manmohan Singh govt. had promised it in Common Minimum Program but still it has not been fulfilled. There are other urgent issues, which Confederation will continue raising like backlog in govt. services and bringing out of Reservation Act.
