Dalit youth should join the Army for rum: Minister Athawale
Union Minister Ramdas Athawale on Sunday asked Dalit youths to join the Indian Army where they can get rum, instead of consuming country liquor while unemployed. Stressing on the need for reservation for Dalits in defence forces, Athawale said, "Dalits are fighters. They can contribute (to) the nation if they join defence forces."
