Dear All,
We the Dalit and Bahujan students, request the EFLU community to the Inaugural ceremony of unveiling the Portraits of Dalit and Bahujan Leaders; Babasaheb Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, Father of the Indian Nation. Mahatma Jotiba Phule, Father of the Indian Social Revolution. Savitri Bai Phule, First Indian Women Teacher (her birth day January 3 is declared as “National Teachers Day”) Komaram Bheem, Telangaana Tribal Leader.
All these Greatest Social Reformers of modern India struggled hard to root out the social inequalities perpetuated by Brahminical and Hindu Fundamentalist forces from this country. They fought against the practices of untouchability for the liberation of the most oppressed sections of Indian society such as SC, ST, and OBC communities. They also crusaded against the casteism, the Law of Manu and Varna ideologies for bringing the Social equality.
In the present Indian society, though the Dalits and Bahujans are provided constitutional rights for the social justice, in every educational institution deliberately these rights have been denied either during admissions or during any other opportunities. This ceremony stands as a symbolic gesture to remind ourselves including teachers, non-teaching staff and students to remind the great figures of India and the values they fought for. It is also to remind us that we the citizens of Indian Union have to abide by the constitution.
So we request all of your gracious presence on this occasion at Administrative block at 4 pm. All the democratic forces are invited.
