Muslims can be persuaded to agree to the
construction of Ram Mandir at the Babri Masjid site in Ayodhya provided
the following eight points are accepted, approved and implemented by the
Government:
1. De-reserve the constituencies of Lok Sabha and state assemblies where
the Scheduled Caste percentage is not the highest in the state. Instead,
reserve those constituencies where SC percentage is the highest, as
recommended by Justice Sachar Committee. Thus end the widespread
violation of section 9(1)(c) of the Delimitation Act.
2. The Alternative Admission Criteria (apportioning 60% for merit + 40%
for backwardness) for undergraduate level admission into all
universities and colleges of India should be accepted, approved and
implemented as recommended by Justice Sachar Committee.
3. To fill the posts of CEO of state waqf boards the central government
should accept, approve and implement the launching of Indian Waqf
Service as recommended by the Justice Sachar Committee.
4. The earlier RBI proposal of allowing the banks to have a window for
interest less banking should be accepted, approved and implemented by
the central government.
5. The minority character of Aligarh Muslim University and Jamia Millia
Islamia and all other educational institutions established by the
minorities should be accepted, approved and implemented by the central
government.
6. Any person who is charged of terror activity and is, after several
years of multi-dimensional sufferance, is exonerated by the court as
innocent should be given Rs fifty lakh as compensation by the
government. Later on, this money should be at least partly deducted from
the salary/pension/provident fund/retirement benefits of the officer(s)
who wrongly implicated him.
7. Through a simple majority vote of parliament, amend the definition of
'Scheduled Caste' as given in para 3 of the Constitution (Scheduled
Castes) Order, 1950 and make this definition religion-neutral. That is
to say, delete the conditionality of religion.
8. Give proportionate share to Muslims in central and state council of
ministers and in all nominated posts and appointments under the state &
central governments.
9. Appoint Equal Opportunity Commission at the centre and in the states
as recommended by Sachar Committee.
