Yesterday I had a discussion with someone regarding reservations in India. I said that people who only want reservations, but don’t want to fight for economical equality either want the role of exploiter for themselves or don’t understand how it works!
A thread! 1/7

They have not yet grasped the difference between the alms of reservation, which the exploiting class throws as tactic, and the real liberation.
Now imagine that there formed a government in India where in the representatives of SC, ST and BC constitute the majority! 2/7

What can that government do in respect of elimination of caste? What will be their programmes in that respect? How will it abolish exploitative property relations? With what programmes will it change the economic conditions of lower castes that are living by performing 3/7

all kinds of unclean labour?
At the most, it may make some laws with haphazard sayings like - ‘Don’t observe caste distinctions!” Whom can it order with such laws? Can it arrange a marriage between a Brahmin girl and a Chamar boy by means of commands of law? 4/7

Can it bring together any two persons any time by means of laws? How can it pave the way to inter caste marriages without changing economic conditions? Then what will a government of lower castes accomplish by taking the reigns of state power?
5/7

What it will achieve is this:- It will accomplish the sharing of its spoil in the process of exploitation of labour. It attains a place that enables it to stand as lower caste bourgeoisie beside the upper caste bourgeoisie.
We are seeing government of lower castes also. 6/7

Their entire aim is to create Dalit Bahujan Bourgeoisie. Do you know what it means?Nothing but the exploitation of ordinary masses of lower castes by the bourgeoisie of the lower castes!Government of lower castes will achieve this wonderfully!
