By Our Staff Reporter

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, MAY 6. The dalit community was neglected most during the tenure of the LDF Government, according to the Kerala Congress(M) secretariat member, Mr. Kottarakara Ponnachan.

Inaugurating a district-level meeting of the Kerala Dalit Congress(M) here today, Mr. Ponnachan said the LDF Government had failed to give the rightful concessions to the dalit community and to introduce more welfare schemes.

The Kerala Congress(M) leader urged the dalits to protest openly against those who neglected the community.

The Dalit Congress(M) district president, Mr. Paliyadu Sadanadan, presided over the function. Mr. Manaloor Shibu, Mr. Vamanapuram T. Mani, Mr. Kanjirampara Surendran and Mr. Poovachal Ravi were among those who spoke.
