VHP thanks EC to ban Muslim Reservation

New Delhi. Jan 12, 2012. Vishwa Hindu Parishad today welcome the
decission of the election commission to ban reservation to Minority in
five states and sent a letter of thanks to the cheif election
commission (CEC) today for admitting VHP demand in the interest of the
nation. In his letter of thanks VHP Central secretary Dr Surendra Jain
said that this act of EC would have historic impact and would save the
nation from divisive politics of the UPA Govt.

A high level VHP delegation comprising its Int'l Vice President shri
Om Prakash Singhal, the newly elected international Secretary General
Vishwa Hindu Parishad shri Champat Rai, secretary of the organization
Dr Surendra Jain and state Media chief Vinod Bansal meet EC on Dec 29.
The delegation elaborated the CEC that The Central Government's
decision to carve out a 4.5% sub-quota for Minorities from within the
27% reservation for OBC's, just before the announcement of the polling
dates by Election Commission five states, is a pre-poll exploitive
stunt meant to unduly influence the minority community to attract
their votes.

In its memorandum to CEC, VHP said that the religion-based reservation
is not only prohibited by Articles 15(1) and 16(2) of the constitution
and violative of articles 15(4) and 16(4) of the same too but also
divide the country. The VHP leaders requested the Election Commission
of India to take action against the Indian National Congress, the
ruling party for blatant violation of the model code of conduct for
political benefits by seeking votes on the basis of religion. The VHP
demanded to rollback the communal order and requested that party
should be debarred from fighting the elections.

VHP today said that it is high time for the congress to rethink about
its appeasement policy.
