Vijayawada: The All India Progressive Forum (AIPF) national convener Anil Rajimale on Thursday appealed to intellectuals to join their hands to prevent the rise of communal forces backed by BJP-RSS.
Speaking at a seminar on ‘Threat posed by fundamentalism to India’s unity’, organised by the AIPF to mark its first national convention, here on Thursday, Anil Rajimale alleged that BJP-led NDA government was encouraging communal forces to attack minorities.
“Atrocities against Dalits have become common these days. Majority of the Dalits and minorities across the country are living in fear,” he said.
He suggested the NDA government to focus on implementing welfare schemes than actively supporting the communal forces. Speaking on the occasion, former vice-chancellor of the Acharya Nagarjuna University K Viyanna Rao alleged that the Narendra Modi was pursuing anti-poor policies by supporting corporate.
Earlier, AIPF leaders paid homage to Dalit writers who were killed in communal attacks recently. AIPF AP unit general secretary S Hanumanth Reddy, national joint secretary Dr Yugal Rayalu and convener, conference reception committee member B Jamindar, Smita Pansare daughter of slain activist Govind Pansare and also others spoke on the occasion.
