Buta Singh slams Mayawati over insult Zeenews Bureau New Delhi, April 04: National Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Commission chief Buta Singh on Friday slammed Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati for deliberately insulting him for taking side with farmer leader Mahendra Singh Tikait. According to reports, the SC/ST chief said that he has been in the Parliament for the last 45 years and no body ever raised a question over his conduct. He was reacting to the allegations made by BSP supremo that he took side with the BKU leader M S Tikait, who was arrested after a three-day stand-off over his allegedly casteist remarks against Mayawati. Training her guns on the Congress leader, Mayawati also labeled the party as 'anti-Dalit' and sought resignations from Buta Singh and Sri Prakash Jaiswal, the Union Minister of State for Home on their silence at the issue. Addressing a press conference, Mayawati said, "It was a matter of bigger shame that the head of the National Commission for Schedules Castes and Scheduled Tribes had failed to even react to such blatant violation of the Act." She further accused the past governments of being ineffective in enforcing the law aimed at protection of Dalits.
