All
India Confederation of SC/ST Organizations is an outfit of SC/ST organizations
both in public and private sectors with its headquarters in New Delhi. The Punjab
Chapter of the Confederation was launched on September 8, 2013 at an impressive
function at Red Cross Bhawan in Jalandhar. The organizers, particularly Shri
Jiwan Singh of LIC, invited me to the function as Guest of Honour along with other
dignitaries like Shri Rajesh Bagha, Chairman of Punjab State SC Commission,
Shri Surinder Mahey, Ex. Mayor of Jalandhar, Shri R.L. Bassan, Civil
Surgeon of Jalandhar and Shri Paramjit Mahey, President BSNL SC/ST
Employees Association. Shri K.P. Chaudhary, Secretary General of All India
Confederation of SC/ST Organizations presided over the inaugural function.
The
Punjab Chapter of the Confederation was launched successfully with presence and
support of various SC/ST outfits. I was impressed by the sizeable gathering of
the employees of various offices, an educated class of the dalit community. Shri
K.P. Chaudhary’s presidential address was good, informative and motivative. I
found Chaudhary a knowledgeable person with good personality and oratorical
skills. Shri Chaudhary, inter alia, said that Reservation of SC/STs should be
restored in promotions. The reservation provisions should be made statutory and
kept in the 9th Schedule of the constitution. He also demanded that
since the job opportunities in the public sector were shrinking reservation
should be provided in the private sector too.
The
underlying current of the function was the need of unity in the community to
face the upcoming challenges of the fast changing ground realities both in the
society and polity. All the speakers stressed that it will be advisable to get
united and stand under the umbrella of the Ambedkar Mission and Thought. The
divisive tendencies, on the basis of religion and sects, shall not be allowed to overtake the
situation. I think that it is the only correct way to get united. And without
getting united, the community is bound to suffer.
The
Working Committee of the Punjab Chapter of the Confederation will be headed by
Shri Amrik Singh Bungar of PWD supported by Working President Shri Jiwan Singh
of LIC, Vice President Shri Paramjit Mahey of BSNL, General Secretary Shri Prem
Pal Domeli.
I wish the leaders of the All India
Confederation of SC/ST Organisations all success in the years to come.
The Central Govt plans to Include the converted christians and Muslims to SC St List. Now they are considering the same. So protest strongly to avoid such inappropriate and anti national move against down trodden.
