| Govt not Sincere towards SC/ST/OBCs : BSP | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 2: BSP highlighted their long pending issues in press conference held here today.
President BSP,R Majotra demanded rationalisation of Reservation in J&K on 30-01-2020 according to Reservation Act 2004 of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, reflects double standards of the Govt. If all other central laws are being extended to J&K, then why not Central Reservation Policy ?
He said that OBC people were granted 27% Reservation in all states of the country in 1993 but 2% in J&K because of article 370. Thus state OBCs could not get the benefit of the Reservation at par with rest of the country. Now when state has been converted into a UT, there is no reason to keep OBC people deprived of their right of 27% quota.
Similarly, benefit of Reservation in promotion to SC is going on in rest of the country but not in J&K. All this has exposed anti-reservation mindset of the Govt.
He said that BSP had supported the Reorganisation Bill in the Parliament with hopes that Govt shall deliver justice to all sections of society on the pattern of National Policy. It was hoped that 26 year old issue of OBCs and issue of Reservation in promotion for SCs will automatically be resolved with conversion of state into UT but it is unfortunate that it didn’t happen.
