Govt behaves undemocratically, not allow Dalits to speak, says Jignesh Mevani
The "Yuva Hunkar Rally" by Gujarat MLA and Dalit leader Jignesh Mevani, aimed at raising issues like social justice, unemployment and atrocities against Dalits and release of Bhim Army's founder Chandrashekhar Azad, today began to a tiresome response at Delhi's Parliament Street. Mevani, who won from Vadgam in Gujarat in Assembly elections, said elected representatives were not allowed to speak and that was Gujarat's model. The rally was held amidst tight security and took place despite not receiving a go-ahead from the police.
Azad, 30, was arrested under the tough National Security Act over Thakur-Dalit clashes in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur district previous year. The newly elected Gujarat legislator shared the stage with JNU student leaders, including Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Shehla Rashid. Assam's farmer leader Akhil Gogoi and senior Supreme Court lawyer Prashant Bhushan also attended the rally.

An organiser claimed the police and media had "created confusion" about the rally, which accounted for the modest turnout. "No permission has been given to anyone (to hold a rally)", Joint Commissioner of Police Ajay Chaudhary told reporters here. Earlier, scores of people gathered around the barricaded Parliament Street for the protest march planned by Mevani.

At a press conference on Friday, he had said that he meant to knock at the PM's door with two books, the Manusmriti and the Constitution, "and ask him what he chooses". PM Modi has to choose between the two, Manusmriti and the constitution.
Kumar alleged that the BJP-RSS was known for "violence" and spreading "hatred" and appealed to the young "not to fall into their trap". "You have to answer why millions of people are not getting jobs despite promises", he said. "That is the reason we are being targetted", Mevani told his Yuva Hunkar rally here. "There's no space for Dalits in the Hindu Rashtra that they envision", JNU student Umar Khalid said at the rally.
