STOPPING ATROCITIES & DEVELOPMENT OF SC&ST DALITS

 

 

 

I.           PLANNING AND BUDGET

 

1. Special SC&ST Planning Development and Co-ordination Commission, must be created immediately.  If the same is not possible at the present juncture, Planning Commission should have a Strong Component of SCs&STs.  The SC&ST Dalits in different parts of the Country be encouraged to Plan for their own Community Development.  

2. Special SC&ST Economic Programmes and Plans must be introduced, and they must be Reviewed and Restructured regularly, to ensure that they really reach the target groups. 

3. Budgets should be prepared, only after Consultations with SC&ST Leaders and Associations.  SC&ST Dalits, being 260 million Plus today, can no more be neglected – not any further.  The Consultations must be similar, if not exactly like those that the Finance Ministers do have these days, to consult big businesses and industrialists before finalising their Budgets.  That, though the FMs and their Govts win their Elections and come to Power, with the Votes of millions and millions of poor SC&ST Dalits, and not that of the Business Houses and Industrialists.

4. There should be a professional SC&ST Adviser to the Govt, and Consultants on SC&ST Issues in all Departments, to evolve Plans Programmes and Schemes of the Ministry/ Department in tune with, and to include the needs and interests of SCs&STs.  They must be drawn from outside the IAS and other non-professional bureaucratic lobby, which had all along betrayed the People of the Country, particularly SC&ST Dalits.  Adequate Number of SC&ST Dalit Professionals must be trained appropriately as Experts in SC&ST Dalits’ Development to meet the needs of Developing 260 million Plus poor helpless directionless assetless real leaderless SCs&STs in the Country. 

 

II.         PUBLIC SECTOR UNDERTAKINGS

 

5. All CMDs, Managing Directors, and full-time functional Directors and Executive Directors, must be chosen from amongst only those who had originally joined initial Service, with proper full-time Professional Qualifications from Universities, and not those who just have got some namesake Degrees and Certificates.  All those, who had just managed to pick-up some Knowledge or Qualifications and Degrees on the job, being really not experts or good professionals, must be replaced immediately.  Particularly, the Services of all those who had risen from the ranks of Personal Assistants, Stenographers, Clerks, posts of PROs and Technical Assistants, with only matriculations or just Diplomas, who today monopolise the PSUs because of their castes, connections, strings and manipulations, must be dispensed with.  And in their places, properly qualified SC&ST Dalits must be employed as CMDs, MDs, EDs etc.

6. All PSUs in the Country, must be Developed in a big way, to achieve excellence in their respective spheres, and reach prominent Industrial and Business heights, without any exception. 

7. Every loss making PSU, must be subjected to special Scrutiny of Parliament – taking into account, the Views of the Workers, their Unions, SC&ST Dalit Welfare Associations etc, to learn lessons from the failures, the causes and reasons. 

8. Loss-making PSUs, wherever necessary must be handed over to Workers’ Unions, or any specialist Management Consultants – for Revival, Reconstruction, Modernisation and Diversification.  For, there is something sinister that, while Private Sector Industries and Foreign Multi-National Companies are suddenly Mushrooming, and growing into unwieldy cancerous Giants, virtually in no time, making unbelievably huge profits, PSUs are wilting one after the other, only to bloom again in the hands of others, after their Privatisation.

 

III.       EMPLOYMENT OF SCs&STs

 

9. Discriminations exploitations and harassments are maximum, in the Unorganised Sector, which go undocumented.  SC&ST Dalits are mostly employed in the Unorganised Sector, and they suffer the most.  Perhaps, the discriminations exploitations and harassments take place in the Unorganised Sector, only because of SCs&STs there.  These injustices and unfair practices, oftentimes crueller and most inhuman, must be put to an end at the earliest.  Therefore, an appropriate Agency/ Regulatory Authority must be created, to ensure that Rural Employments remain Fair and Just.  Anyone, employing ten or more individuals for more than ten days, must be asked to first Register their Requirement with the Regulator.  Before employing anyone, the Employers must Deposit 100 Days Wages.  That Deposit should be utilised to pay the Workers, if they are not paid the Minimum Wages.

10.  There should be an Insurance Scheme for SCs&STs, to protect them in all cases of Dismissals and Un-employment, something similar to Retirement Benefits and Pension Payments, since there is still no Social Welfare Net in the Country.  This alone will ensure that they are not left to the mercy of the Forces in the Street 

11.  Crafts Schools and Skill Development Centres must be established, for Promotion of Handicrafts, as most of the SCs&STs are generally engaged in these jobs, and there had been very little skill improvements, for a quite long time, in these Spheres.

12.  Rural Entrepreneur Development Centres must be Established in every Taluk, to Develop Entrepreneurship amongst the SCs&STs, particularly in the Rural SC&ST Areas.

 


IV.       EMPLOYMENT OF SC&ST SWEEPERS

 

13.  Govt Offices and Public Sector Enterprises, must promote Sweepers from SC&ST Communities to higher ranks, as Public Health Workers and Supervisors.  The Sweepers from SC&ST Communities must be employed at such senior levels, as Public Health Workers, Supervisors and still more higher Jobs, in all Hospitals, Panchayats, Municipalities, City Corporations, Market Places, Slaughter Houses, Bus Terminals, Railway Stations etc, to maintain utmost cleanliness.

14.  Special Awards must be Instituted, and Awarded to the best Public Health Workers and Supervisors who maintain cleanliness, comparable to good Air Ports, to duly recognise their hard-work and contributions.   

15.  Govt must stop exploiting SC&ST Sweepers, and not privatise the Jobs of Sweepers, to benefit private contractors.  Govt must declare publicly and very clearly, that Sweeping will be the last job to be privatised.

16.  All Panchayats, Municipalities, City Corporations, Govt Offices, Public Sector Enterprises must stop, the prevailing fraudulent practices of employing as Sweepers, those who are not from the SC&ST Sweeper Communities, but gain entry into service, only to get regular jobs, and every month decent salaries as Sweepers, but without ever actually doing any work of Sweepers.

 

V.         SCs&STs IN SERVICE

 

17.  Professionally Qualified SC&ST Dalits must be appointed as MDs, CMDs and Chairmen of PSUs, Banks and Financial Institutions.

18.  There should be a TRANSFER POLICY, with clear Provisions to Protect SCs&STs from deliberate Discriminations of Transfers to distant, difficult, troubled and unwanted areas.  SC&ST Dalits are now being deliberately shunted out, and posted to distant far off places; while others are retained, or given good postings, or allowed to pick choose take and move on transfers of their choices.  Those SC&ST Dalits, who keep Begging for Cancellation of their Transfers, or ask for posting somewhere nearby and in safe places, are being deliberately penalised severely.  In fact, under the excuse of discipline, many SCs&STs are now being even Dismissed from their Services.  Such totally unfair unjust and disproportionate harassments of SC&ST Dalits must be stopped.  SC&ST Dalits should not be posted, beyond the immediate adjacent States and Union Territories surrounding their home States/UTs, other than the National Capital of Delhi, or to places of their choice on individual requests.

19.  Moratorium on Persecution of all SC&ST Officials Employees and Workers, at least for five years, during the tenure of this Govt, as in most Departments more than 76% of Officers Staff and Workers being penalised these days, under one pretext or the other, are SC&ST Dalits.

20.  Immediate Rehabilitation of all SC&ST Dalits and Minorities thrown out of, their Service/ Job/ Employment, by way of forced or coerced Voluntary Retirement Schemes, or Compulsory Retirements, or Dismissals etc.

 

PROMOTIONS OF SC&ST DALITS IN SERVICE

 

21.  SC&ST Employees must be protected, from being deliberately dropped out at the time of Promotions, due to the still lingering racial caste fears and antagonisms.  Similarly, the current practices of avoiding deferring and delaying SC&ST Promotions must be stopped, as they are clear attempts to destroy the career progressions of SCs&STs.

22.  Every SC/ST recruited into superior Services, through All India Competitive Examinations by UPSC, must be given Time Bound Promotions, as in the case of those joining Indian Administrative Service, up to the rank/ grade of Joint Secretary at least.  Other SC&ST Officers, must be given at least one Promotion, after every ten years of Service in a Post/ Rank.

23.  SC/ST Employees recruited into subordinate or junior Services, must also be given Time Bound Promotions, and at least one Promotion for every ten years of their service.. 

24.  The present practices of promoting others less qualified, or not qualified, at all in the specific areas of work, or are non-specialists, and also those not adequately experienced, specially in the areas of work, must be stopped at least now.  Such things are being done only to just by-pass SC&ST Dalits who are more qualified, better qualified, and are specialists, that too in the specific areas of work, as well as with right and adequate experiences.  Therefore, the SC&ST Dalits must be given their due promotions, at the right times, even if they are not otherwise promoted earlier – as rapid, fast-track or flier promotions in recognition of their Services and Contributions, and as the right and due incentives.

 

RATINGS AND REPORTS OF SC&ST DALITS IN SERVICE

 

25.  Any SC&ST given an Annual Confidential Report (ACR) or Grading that is below the requirement for Promotion, should be properly advised and given full opportunities to overcome the alleged ‘shortcomings’ said to have been observed by their superiors. 

26.  SC&ST Dalits, getting ACRs or Gradings below the Requirements for their next Promotions for the second time, must immediately be sent to undergo Appropriate Advanced Trainings, or Special Executive and Management Development Programmes to improve their performances.

27.  Most SCs&STs are deliberately given lukewarm and poor ACRs and Ratings, to delay and deny their Promotions, because of the still prevailing and continuing caste biases and prejudices.  Hence, Severe Actions must be taken against Officers, giving more than one Adverse Report or poor Grading, to any SC&ST working under them.  And, Action should also be taken against the HODs, whenever any SC/ST is given Adverse ACRs and Poor Reports, for consequent years.


28.  There should be Special Moderation Committees (SMCs) to look into the ACRs and Gradings of SC&ST Officers and Employees.  These SMCs should have full Powers to expunge adverse, bad and lukewarm Entries in the Reports, and also upgrade the Gradings, well before any Promotions are made.  At least 50% Members of such SMCs should be, capable and well established SCs&STs - non-controversial amongst SC&ST Dalit Communities, drawn only from other Ministries/ Departments/ Organisations.

 

VI.       EMPLOYMENT OF SCs&STs IN PRIVATE SECTOR

 

29.  MERIT IS DISCOUNTED, as it is totally Subjective, and invariably NOT A CONSIDERATION for Employment, in most of the Private Sector Units.  Hence, Quantum Changes must be ensured, in all Employments in the Private Sector, to ensure Justice to everyone in the Country.

30.  Private Sector and Business Activities in the Country, are all organised purely on the basis of Castes, and are not at all based on Merit or Capabilities.  Therefore, Drastic Changes must be made, to reduce Caste Considerations and Caste Influences at the time of Employments in the Private Sector, to provide Equal Opportunities to all, irrespective of Considerations of Caste, Colour, Sex, Race etc. 

31.  There must be a suitable REGULATORY AUTHORITY to govern Employments in the Private Sector, as there is no possibility at all for the SCs&STs, Minorities and other backward castes in the Country, to get any decent or good and well paid Employment in the Private Sector, in the present day conditions.

 

VII.    RESERVATIONS IN PRIVATE SECTOR

 

32.  There must be COMPULSORY RESERVATIONS for Employment of SCs&STs, in all Private Sector Establishments, utilising Natural Resources of the People in the Country.

33.  Anyone using Water or Land, within the boundaries of the Nation, or employing more than thirty Individuals educated and trained in the Country, must strictly implement Reservations.  For, Industries and Businesses are for Public Good, and Welfare of the whole Society, and not for the private personal Profits and huge unlimited Earnings of Industrialists and Business Families, or the exclusive benefits of any single individual or group or caste. 

 

VIII.  PAYMENT OF WAGES TO SCs&STs

 

34.  Just Wages must be paid to SC&ST Dalits, who work physically to create lasting public assets, and provide food to all People in the Country.

35.  Minimum Wages must be Development and Growth Oriented, and not be cruelly tied to Survival, or be meaninglessly kept down as Subsistence Wages.  Hence, SC&ST Employees should no more be paid Minimum or Subsistence or Survival Wages, while others living on the contributions and produce of SC&ST Dalits, are easily and comfortably allowed to take home millions as Salaries, and at times even as incentives or as increments.

36.  Payment of Full Wages to SC&ST Dalits must be ensured, as they are invariably not paid full wages due or promised, almost in every part of the Country.  This is so, even in the Public Sector and Govt Offices – under some pretext or the other.

 

IX.       EQUAL WAGES FOR ALL

 

37.  The relative Gap between SC&ST Dalit Workers, and Officials in Govt or Private must be reduced gradually and regularly, to bridge the gulf step by step, and at the earliest.

38.  The ultimate Aim of the Govt must be, EQUAL WAGES FOR ALL in the Country.

39.  Wages must be in proportion to hours of Work, difficulties, hardships and risks involved in the Job, actual and direct energy input to the job, and contributions to the basic needs of People in the Country, as well as the needs of the family of the workers/ employees.

 

X.         END HUNGER DEATHS

 

40.  Hunger Deaths of poor SC Dalits and helpless ST Dalits must be stopped all around the Country, with the utmost priority and at any cost.  There should be Day-Care Centres with Nutritious Mid-Day Meal Programmes in every SC&ST Colonies and Villages, to protect all the young Children, particularly those suffering from severe mal-nutrition/ different and avoidable sicknesses, and save them from hunger deaths that occur even these days, in many different parts of the Country.

41.  Spending huge funds from the Public Exchequer, just to store rotting Food-Stocks in the Godowns, must be stopped.  SC&ST Dalits must be engaged, in the tasks of assessing the Life and Quality of each lot of Grains procured, to prevent them from being distributed to SCs&STs, after the expiry of their shelf/ storage lives.  Like Drugs, Food Stocks must be packed properly, and scientifically stored, indicating procurement date, storage life, and expiry date.  All old stocks must be assessed for their Utility – human consumption, or use as feedstock to animals, bird and fish, or as manure in the farms; or for condemnation and safe deep burial or incineration.

42.  Non-moving and slow-moving FOOD-STOCKS, must be Distributed to SC&ST Dalits, after ensuring their quality, immediately after the end of, half their storage lives.  Revenue Authorities must be held responsible, for their distribution to poor SCs&STs, both in the Rural Areas and City Slums.

43.  Schemes like Creation of PUBLIC PHYSICAL ASSETS and WORK FOR FOOD must be launched, in the poor backward SC&ST Areas.  Revenue Authorities should be asked to get created, reasonably proportionate Public Physical Assets, in return for the grains distributed.  The Concept should be, just exactly reverse and opposite to the present Scheme of FOOD FOR WORK, which fails to take off in time in many areas, as authorities are too slow in coming out with their Plans for the Works, that need to be taken up under the prevailing Food for Work Schemes. 

 

XI.       PROVISION OF MEDICAL FACILITIES

 

44.  Dispensaries and Medical Sub-Centres for rendering First Aid, be set up in every SC&ST Colony, both in the Rural and Urban Areas.  And, all the Dispensaries and Medical Sub-Centres in SC&ST Areas must be manned by local SC&ST Youngsters, trained by Medical Colleges and Hospitals as Para-Medics, to ensure that their Dispensaries and Medical Centres are always manned. 

45.  Proper and full-fledged Medical Treatment Facilities, and Maternity Centres with pre-Natal/ anti-Natal, peri-Natal and Post-Natal Care for Infants and Mothers be set up, for every ten SC&ST Colonies/ Areas, both in Rural Areas and Urban Slums, in the Country. 

46.  SC&ST Dalit Medical Specialists must be encouraged to set up Community based Medical and Maternity Centres in/near-by SC&ST Colonies. 

 

XII.     EDUCATION OF SCs&STs

 

47.  All Educational Institutions, Govt or Private, must Admit 25% SC&ST Dalit Students, without any exception .

48.  All SC&ST Dalit Students must be given proper and adequate Freeships in Schools, to study and to avoid dropouts; Scholarships for pursuing higher studies in Colleges and Universities; Fellowships for Research and Advanced Trainings in the Country, without any Restrictions as in the case of Merit Scholarships.

49.  SC&ST Students must be given preferences, at the time of Admissions in all Educational Institutions.  For, the entire Indian Society needs to be Educated on Priority, if the Country is to Develop as a Civilised Nation.  Hence, the least educated must first be admitted for Education, instead of admitting only those from the already well educated families and with higher marks.

50.  SC&ST Dalits sending their Children for Education, should be exempted from all Taxes, and provided with other incentives. 

 

XIII.  OVERSEAS FELLOWSHIPS FOR SCs&STs

 

51.  Increase the Numbers of Overseas Fellowships for SCs&STs, to go abroad and pursue higher Education and Advanced Studies, in emerging Spheres of frontier areas of Science and Technology, without any restriction, as the number of SC&ST Scholars Studying abroad is now practically negligible, and in fact is Nil in many spheres.

 

XIV.  SC&ST TEACHERS

 

52.  SC&ST Teachers must be employed on a preferential basis, to spread Education amongst SCs&STs.

53.  SC&ST Teachers must also be appointed and promoted as Head Masters and Principals, to give a big push to SC&ST Dalits Education.

54.  SC&ST Students must be engaged to Teach other SCs&STs, both old and young during Summer Vacations.  They should be given appropriate honorariums, to expeditiously spread literacy amongst SCs&STs.

57.  Dominant Caste Students, claiming to have Extraordinary Talents and superior family backgrounds, and educated parents, must be encouraged to go to Open Schools, or take up Continuing or Correspondence Courses.  They can always afford the best of private costly coaching classes and expensive expert tuitions, better resources, etc to study and pass out as private students.

65.  Special Schemes must be launched, to provide Residential Accommodation to all SC&ST Dalits, particularly in the Cities, State Capitals and Delhi, as generally almost all House Owners - particularly the caste hindus - are still not willing to provide any decent Accommodation to SC&ST Dalits, in most parts of the Country even today. 

66.  Transit and Hostel Accommodations must be built for SC&ST Employees.  

67.  In General Residential Areas, SC&ST Dalits must be allotted accommodation on a priority basis.  The first/ next-available accommodation must be allotted to SC&ST Dalits, to create composite and tolerant metropolitan Societies.

70.  Land Reforms must be taken up again all over the Country, honestly and sincerely, with a time bound programme.

71.  All loop-holes in the present Land Reform Acts, and in the implementation stages must be plugged, immediately.

77.  Appropriate Irrigation Facilities to SC&ST Lands must be provided, at the earliest.

78.  Electric Connections must be provided to SC&ST Farmers, on a close Time-Bound Programme, particularly in areas where Free-Power is given for Agriculture, or at Concessional Rates, or as a Priority Sector.

XXIII.   NGOs

 

91.  SCs&STs must be encouraged and helped to organise Professional NGOs in different parts of the Country.  Today, many NGOs by the Dominant Castes are sprouting all over the Country.  Working for and in the name of SC&ST Dalits, has become a big business today.  There is lot of money, power, position, recognition, prestige and comfort in it.  Hence, lots of NGOs are now being registered by many, only for this purpose, and make a big living.  And there is a big unholy alliance between the NGOs, Govt Officials and Politicians to cheat and exploit both the Govts, Aid-Agencies, and also the SC&ST Dalits.  Hence very often, the NGOs themselves have become oppressive, and a big burden on SC&ST Dalits in the Country.

92.  Existing NGOs must be compelled to include SCs&STs, preferably activist SC&ST Academicians and committed retired SC&ST Officials, on their Governing Bodies etc, if they are to continue receive Govt Funds, or be allowed to receive Foreign Fundings, to Work for SC&ST Dalits.

94.  The National Commission on SCs&STs must bring out, Appropriate Volumes and Writings, on the Problems of Exploitations and Sufferings of SCs&STs, as well as the Policy and Need for Reservations etc.
