Patna: CPI-M general secretary Sitaram Yechury on Wednesday said the RSS and the BJP were always opposed to the reservation provision in the country.

“There was nothing new in RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s remark on review of the reservation policy. The RSS and the BJP are against the reservation provision,” Yechury said.

Reservation cannot be ended as it has been provided by the Constitution, he said.

“The RSS puppet BJP has been trying to saffronise all government institutions. We will not sit silent, we have to expose and protest to put a stop to such dangerous moves,” Yechury told the media here.

He said the BJP has been attempting to impose RSS agenda on the country.

“The Left parties’ unity will check the RSS agenda and the Left parties will defeat the BJP in the (Bihar) polls,” he said.

Yechury alleged that the BJP was spending Rs.10,000 crore on the Bihar polls. “The BJP should disclose the source of such huge money and explain it to the people.”

The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.

Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.

 

The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
