KARWADI: Gujjar leader Kirori Singh Bainsla on Wednesday accused the Centre and Rajasthan Government of adopting "time buying tactics" on the community's demand for ST status.
"The Prime Minister's Office by referring the issue to the Law Ministry is part of the time-buying tactics adopted by the Central and Rajasthan governments," Bainsla said.
He was responding to questions on the PMO's decision to refer to the Law Ministry the letter of Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje seeking a separate quota for Gujjars.
The Gujjar leader said granting ST status for the community will be the "fitting tribute" for the people who laid down their lives for the cause during the agitation last year and last weekend.
"Only granting ST status for Gujjars will end the agitation," he said.
Bainsla asked the Rajasthan Government to send a "clear and factual" report to the Centre on the community's demand.
