MP Dr. Mannalal Rawat: Some Misleading Youth into Stone-Pelting

Udaipur: Lok Sabha MP Dr. Mannalal Rawat stated that those demanding a separate state by visiting Mangarh Dham are influenced by the ideologies of the British and the Church. He claimed that these individuals have been misleading the local youth into stone-pelting and creating a misleading environment at Mangarh. According to Dr. Rawat, only a specific organization, not the entire tribal community, is involved.

Dr. Rawat addressed a press conference at the District Council Auditorium on Thursday. He accused these individuals of spreading extremism and casteism for political purposes, falsely claiming that tribals are not Hindus. He urged the community to be cautious of such elements and emphasized that such divisive narratives should be avoided to maintain social harmony. Dr. Rawat highlighted that the tribal community historically visited Mangarh Dham for religious rituals, and in 1913, they were massacred by the British at this site.

**Government Committed to Tribal Welfare**

MP Dr. Rawat emphasized that both the central government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the state government led by Chief Minister Bhajanalal Sharma have implemented beneficial schemes for the local tribal community and southern Rajasthan. He credited the BJP with establishing a separate Ministry of Tribal Welfare and forming the Tribal Commission. He asserted that the government is continuously working towards the upliftment of the tribal community, while some elements are spreading ideological pollution in frustration.

**Current Need for De-Listing**

Dr. Rawat mentioned that the tribal community has historically been subjected to conspiracies under missionary influence. He explained that the 1950 Presidential notification defined Scheduled Castes as members of the Hindu community, and similar provisions were intended for Scheduled Tribes. However, due to missionary influence, dual standards were adopted. He argued that tribals who have converted to Christianity or Islam should not receive tribal reservations as they no longer adhere to Hindu traditions. These converted individuals, who constitute about 5% of the tribal population, are unfairly taking reservation benefits meant for the genuine 95%.

He mentioned ongoing movements in 22 states to identify and de-list such ineligible individuals, an effort known as the de-listing movement. Dr. Rawat claimed that those opposing this movement are influenced by Church ideologies and are now attempting to disrupt social unity and harmony in southern Rajasthan through local organizations influenced by the Church. He stressed the need for vigilance against such elements to protect national interests and preserve the Sanatan culture.
