During this, he fiercely targeted the Congress. He said that Congress remained in power in Madhya Pradesh for more than 47 years, but it never celebrated Sant Ravidas Mahakumbh, because Congress never respected the centers of reverence of Scheduled Society like Sant Ravidas, Ambedkar and Valmiki. Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has done the work of celebrating Sant Ravidas Mahakumbh in the state. Party’s state media in-charge Ashish Agarwal and state spokesperson Sanwar Patel were also present in the press conference.

Where the foundation stone of the grand temple of Saint Ravidas will be laid in the presence of Prime Minister Modi. These yatras will take the message of social harmony of Saint Ravidas to the people in the state.
He said that the grand Sant Ravidas temple to be built in Sagar will become a major center of social harmony. The chariots involved in the yatras will have the picture, Charan-paduka and Kalash of Saint Shiromani Ravidas Maharaj. During the yatra, a folder focused on the work done by the state and central government for the Scheduled Castes and the message of Sant Ravidas ji will be distributed. He informed that a team of 21 people has been formed at the state level for the yatra, similarly teams have been formed in the district, assembly and mandals for the successful conduct of the yatra.
The incidents of atrocities on Dalits are more where the Congress and its alliance parties are in power.
Lalsingh Arya said that Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge says that incidents of atrocities on Dalits are happening in Madhya Pradesh, then he should observe the report of National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB). The NCRB report clearly mentions that Rajasthan ranks number one in the country in cases of rape of women and atrocities on Dalits. Where there is a government of coalition parties of Congress, incest and atrocities are happening with Dalits, Jharkhand is a direct example of this. On the other hand, in West Bengal, houses of three thousand Dalits were burnt in the government of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. Kharge ji should answer why Dalits and women are being subjected to so many atrocities in the government of Congress and its coalition parties.
