Chandrabhan Prasad is from Delhi and he writes in national
daily, 'The Pioneer' under “Dalit Diary” column on the problems of society
and in “Rashtriya Sahara”. Before expressing his views on the subject he
thanked organizers particularly national president. Giving reason for this he
said that earlier there was little discussion on economic problems & starvation in Bahujan movement.
Expressing his views he said that he writes for a column in Rashtriya
Sahara & The Pioneer. On the columns he receives 2-3 dozen letters every
week. Maximum of them are either on Hinduism or Buddhism. All these people who
write me ask for suggestion have good houses to live & get good salary or
pension. Their problems are finished. Their children are getting good education.
These people discuss either reservation or their promotion. They never think
about those people who don't get even one time meal. Every one of two SC people
are landless & agriculture laborers. They earn their livelihood by working
on the agriculture land. They don't get proper food to eat. If rest of the
people of SC do not agitate or think for them, then there will be feeling of
discontentment in the society. He said that if the fifty percent of our
community is landless laborer then how can that community become ruling class?
You can secure power or become kings but you can't become ruling class. You can
form Government but can't rule. You can make ruling party but can't become
ruling class. We can't go ahead without taking up the problems of land and
BAMCEF should raise the related issue. It should organize seminar at national
level on this subject, so that there can be debate and discussion on such
problems and solutions could be sought out. Big chunk of our society is living
in a state of confusion. I ask such people whether they have gone through the
book 'State and Minorities' written by Babasaheb Ambedkar. Many people have not
read the book. But if you ask any communist whether he has read communist
manifesto and Dass Capital. He will reply in affirmative. The significance of
communist movement lies in communist manifesto. In the same manner "State
and Minorities' has equal importance in the movement of Ambedkarism. People knew
about controversy between Gandhi and Ambedkar. But they don't know about the
controversy between Nehru and Ambedkar. Dr. Ambedkar has written in his book
“State and Minorities” that the land should be nationalized. He has written
in this book that neither there should be monopoly or supremacy of landlords nor
a subordination of land laborers. At that time Indian communist leader M.S.
Nambudripad presented financial report to finish the land lordship which was
later accepted by Congress.
Dr. Ambedkar has written in this book that people of SC, ST will get
nothing in Tenancy Reforms. Because maximum of these people are landless
laborers. Tenancy Reforms means landlords will become owner of tenancy land.
When Dr. Ambedkar gave this book to Nehru, he wrote long letter which is
available in Nehru selected Volume no.2, in which he says that 'Your point is
very good that land laborer system should be abolished in such a way that nobody
should be landless or land labourer. We have to adopt fascist method for this.
It can't be done through democratic method? Nehru wrote such thing in the letter
and editor of the volume has written in the footnote that due to this matter,
Dr. Ambedkar was very sad. In this book Dr. Ambedkar questions which type of
industry should be in our country? How land should be cultivated? In this book,
he speaks about these people and they criticize us without reading this ideology
that we are taking Marxist line. If you go through communist manifesto, at last
to points are written and there are 10 points in the book “State and
Minority” written by Dr. Ambedkar. Communist
manifesto, State and Minorities had been written 100 years before in which there
is no difference between 10 points of both. If we mix 10 points given by Marx
and Dr. Ambedkar and there order is changed, it will be difficult to know who
had given which point. Person who have settled in
city after coming from village will not go again to village.
They have got good house to live in, so they have nothing to do with this. It is
very good thing in the agitation of BAMCEF that it has put a session of
different problems of society. So that organizations made on the basis of small
problems could be channelised. It is a policy of ruling community that if we
want to rule this vast majority they should be kept starved. They should be
habituated to demand and the one class among it which is in some better
condition should be kept some happy.
He further said that as I am conferencing with press I told them that
press has prejudice. If there are 400, 500 people you will give coverage in a
big way but here more than seven thousand people have participated in this
convention and discussing various problems of society, you can't write even a
single line in the media, what is it. From the conduct of convention by BAMCEF
is clear that if power is given in its hand it will run it also very nicely.
At last he said that it want to speed up our a station then we should
also have our resources. If we create press, we should have hundreds of
industrialist to give advertisements in it. - People in U.S.A. industrialists in
10 years. They made low that another it is software company, Company making
vehicles of raw material of it. It should be purchased from people of EM block,
they should be given leadership. Then these people become industrialists within
10 years. How many dealers of Tata are in our society? How many dealers of Hero
Honda are in our society? Our country is not like U.S.A. Due to which there are
very less industrialists are in our society, they have become it through the
business of petroleum products because there is reservation so we have to start agitation for this. As there are no
industrialists in our society, our leaders sell themselves due to temptation.
Example of U.P. is before us. It is very good thing that BAMCEF has arranged
discussion on conspiracy behind starvation.
It
is also heard that BAMCEF has prepared one action program on the problems of
employees because other people misuse them by giving misinformation BAMCEF has
made action program so that it should not happen and in future also BAMCEF
should arrange discussion on such problems so that large agitation should energy
as a big mission.
