Paswan shedding 'crocodile tears' for oppressed : BJP
Patna | Thursday, Nov 19 2009 IST
 

The BJP today charged LJP supremo Ram Vilas Paswan with only engaging the oppressed as mere 'bargaining capacity' to serve his political interest.

State party secretary Yogendra Paswan said here that Mr Ram Vilas Paswan was sheddding 'crocodile tears' for the oppressed section, especially 'Paswan community' in his bid to revive his shaking mass base.

It was really a historic decision of the Nitish Kumar government to constitute 'Mahadalit Commission' to look into the affairs of those scheduled castes, who lagged behind despite constitutional provision for them in this regard, Mr Paswan said.

The LJP should publicly state what steps he had taken for ameliorating the condition of the Paswan community when he was in power at the Centre, he demanded.

During the 2005 Assembly elections in Bihar, Mr Paswan had advocated for making a Muslim Chief Minister but did not care a fig to put his weight behind a candidate from dalit(oppressed) community for the same, he pointed out.
