SC/ST organisation confederation to hold rally on privatisation of PSUs

Pratidin Bureau

The All India Confederation of SC/ST Organisations will conduct a virtual rally on the issues of reservation and privatisation of public sector undertakings (PSUs) on June 28, chairman of the outfit Udit Raj said on Saturday.

Udit Raj, a Congress leader, said the Supreme Court's order that reservation cannot exceed 50 percent is "against the interests of SC, ST, and OBCs".

Raj accused BSP chief Mayawati of betraying the cause of SCs for power and said, "The government is eroding the base of reservation by privatising PSUs".

He alleged that Mayawati avoided dealing with issues like atrocities against deprived classes and privatisation of PSUs.
