Bhima-Koregaon issue raised in Lok Sabha
“There are some fascist forces who want to oppress Dalits. The injustices against Dalits in rural and urban areas are highly unfair,” said Congress’ Mallikarjun Kharge in the Lok Sabha.
“Whenever Dalits try to live respectfully, there are some people who try to harm them and interrupt such efforts. This is what happened in Bhima-Koregaon,” Kharge further said.
“Why did such an incident happen after years of peace at such an event? Recruitment of Dalits in the army was forbidden for thousands of years because they couldn’t carry weapons,” Kharge further said.
