00:00Who decides what is called merit?
00:03The IIT exams that are being written are all upper-caste
00:08and Dalits are failing.
00:09Then do one thing.
00:10Get it written by the Dalits.
00:11The media is against the Dalits, the tribals, the backwards.
00:30In America, like our IITs, their top exam is called SAT.
00:41And when SAT was applied earlier, a strange thing happened.
00:46The whites in America were topping everything.
00:48And the black-skinned people were not doing so well.
00:53And those who speak Spanish were also not doing so well.
00:58So what did they say first?
00:59First, their top academics said,
01:04these blacks and these Spanish-speaking Latin-Americans are not so meritorious.
01:11They don't understand.
01:14Their capability is less.
01:16And this went on for many years.
01:17Then what did a man do?
01:18A professor.
01:19He said, let me check one thing.
01:21The papers that were written, he got those papers written by the blacks.
01:24He just said, let's do this.
01:26Let's get the papers written by the blacks.
01:27And then they give the exam.
01:28Do you know what happened?
01:29All the whites failed.
01:30Meaning, the system that is controlling, is deciding the merit.
01:34Now, suppose you are a son of a farmer.
01:36And I am the son of a big bureaucrat.
01:38If you write the exam, I will definitely fail.
01:41And if I write the exam, you will definitely fail.
01:44Now, if you are telling me that the IIT exam is being written by all the upper castes.
01:51And the Dalits are failing.
01:52Then do one thing.
01:53Get it written by the Dalits.
01:54Then you will see the next step from Jati Jangana.
01:57In Jati Jangana, saying that Jati Jangana is the solution.
02:01No.
02:02But in Jati Jangana, it will be found that you are saying that the Dalits are lacking in people.
02:07Okay.
02:08But the organizations that are deciding, they don't have a single Dalit.
02:12They don't have a voice.
02:12They don't have a thought.
02:13So how will it happen?
02:14No one can fight the data.
02:16I have kept the data.
02:16That brother, Jati Jangana has data.
02:18Here, brother, there are 90 bureaucrats.
02:20One Dalit is sitting.
02:21One tribal is sitting.
02:22They have no right.
02:23They are sitting quietly in the corner.
02:24You will find out from the data.
02:25And Jati Jangana means the data will go like this.
02:31Everyone will find out that brother, our participation is this much.
02:34No one can talk about the Dalits in the media.
02:36No one can talk about the backwards.
02:37Nowadays we see that the media is neutral.
02:39The media is not neutral.
02:40The media is against the Dalits, the tribals, the backwards.
02:43This should be clear.
02:44And let me tell you one more thing.
02:46This word backward is not a good word.
02:49This other, backward caste, backward, this is not.
02:52You are the foundation of this country.
02:53This country is run by you people.
