After Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Dalit MP Chotelal Kharwar complained to Prime Minister Narendra Modi of mistreatment by Yogi Adityanath-led government, another Dalit MP has written to PM Modi accusing the Central government of ignoring the Dalits of the country.

Yashwant Singh, BJP MP from Uttar Pradesh's Nagina claimed that he became an MP only because of reservation.

"Being a Dalit, my capabilities have not been put to use, I only became an MP because of reservation," Singh wrote in his letter.

Yashwant Singh further alleged that the government has not done anything to benefit the Dalit population of the country.

"In four years, the government has done nothing for the 30 crore Dalits of the country," he further said.

In his letter, Singh has also appealed the Supreme Court to overturn the decision on the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
