Chandrabhan Prasad on the Gujjar Issue

Chandrabhan Prasad gets some face time on primetime. Must watch video in which he asks how on earth can Gujjars claim ST quotas? Hear him reveal some unpleasant truths about Mandal. Unfortunately people like Prasad who are aware of grassroot level realities seldom get to call the shots. The social justice platform has been hijacked.

Shiva Vij, Kancha Illiah, and other fake-self-styled oppresseds are scared witless of Chandrabhan Prasad. Prasad belongs comes from a family with a long martial tradition (as did Ambedkar). He doesn't suffer fools gladly.

It's one of those interesting things how in Indian Armed Forces 'caste identities' dissolve. Gen.Sundarji a Tamizh Iyengar served with pride with the Mahars. And many a Mahar today leads his men in 'high caste' regiments such as the Rajputs or the Garhwal and Kumaon!
