Sir,
This is with reference to manifestoes released by various political parties for the ensuing Assembly Elections. Manifestoes are the mirrors of the parties. They chalk out special strategies for winning the election. Political leaders lure the masses and make false promises. Congress party released 16 points agenda. But there is no mention of OBC/OSC. These people who constitute quite a large number are completely ignored. No development schemes are marked for them. During the last election, a number of promises were made and it was assured that all the issues will be solved amicably, but nothing has happened. Similarly, Gulam Nabi Azad assured and promised that at least 10 percent Reservation will be sanctioned for OBC/OSC. The sad part is that manifesto does not mention the name of OBC/OSC.
BJP, NC, PDP, NPP have also totally ignored and neglected the OBC, social castes people of the State. This is not fair State OBCs are annoyed and feel dejected. These political parties have no upliftment programme for OSC and weaker section of the society. Political parties are vigorously demanding votes from these communities. Contesting candidates are moving from door to door. Future of the candidates depend on the role played by these masses.
State OBC/OSC are requested to Unite and use vote power wisely and cautiously. Various political parties are requested to issue corrigendum and incorporate the welfare programmes for OBCs in their manifestoes.
Yours etc…
