Terming the AICC All India OBC Advisory Committee as “highly successful”, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah heaped praise on party MP Rahul Gandhi, a champion of justice, for his courage and commitment to social justice.
‘Advisory Committee expresses gratitude to Rahul Gandhi’
While talking to reporters after the meeting, Siddaramaiah read out the Bengaluru Declaration from the first meeting, “The AICC OBC Advisory Committee expresses gratitude to Rahul Gandhi, a warrior for justice, for his courage in ensuring social justice for neglected sections of society and his special concern for backward classes. Due to Rahul Gandhi’s resolute determination, the Manuvadi Modi government was compelled to conduct a caste census in India, a just and constitutional demand. The committee wholeheartedly commends Rahul Gandhi for this historic achievement on behalf of all backward classes in India.”
‘India will realise the highest constitutional goal’
“While this is a milestone, it is a small step toward ensuring social justice as envisioned by the Constitution. Under the steadfast leadership of Rahul Gandhi, India will realise the highest constitutional goal of social transformation, paving the way for building an equitable society in our great nation,” he added.
‘We pledge to uphold the Congress party’s flag’
The Chief Minister said, “Under the bold and fearless leadership of Rahul Gandhi, we pledge to uphold the Congress party’s flag and fight to secure social justice for all.”
‘Nationwide caste census should be conducted by ORGI’
The resolutions adopted in the declaration state, “A nationwide caste census should be conducted by the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India (ORGI). The census must include social, economic, educational, employment, and political aspects of every caste and individual, using Telangana’s SEEEP Caste Survey as a model.”
