Withdraw petition against promotion for SC/STs

dalit-watch-Sep-15-12Chennai: DMK leader M. Karunanidhi on Sunday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take steps to withdraw the review petition filed by the Centre in the Supreme Court seeking to dispense with the reservation for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in promotions in higher grade level officers in public sector banks.

“It will go against Mr.Modi’s declaration that the next decade is of Dalits,” Mr Karunanidhi said in a statement.

He said the petition was not only against the Constitution, but would severely affect job opportunities and promotions.

Mr. Karunanidhi also welcomed actor Rajinikanth’s speech at a meeting that it would not augur well for the country if Courts were not functioning properly.
