Q: But there is a big contradiction. You are known to have led mass conversion of Hindus. Do you think it will come in a way of your having a good relationship with RSS because they have very strong views on conversions?
Udit Raj: RSS is not against ‘Diksha'. Buddhism in an indigenous religion, of course. It embodies Indian culture. RSS never opposes it. I'm a follower of Dr Ambedkar. Dr Ambedkar served the nation in a greatest way and he stood for annihilation of caste system. The RSS also wants caste system to go. The gap between different castes is proving to be a hindrance in creating Hindu unity and it should be abridged. I don't think RSS will have any problem. Rather they'll support and they are supporting us so that the division in Hindu society comes to an end.
Q: Now that you have played a very important role in bringing Dalits to the BJP fold, do you see a role for yourself in Modi govt? Are you hopeful for a berth in ministry? You also went to RSS headquarters.
Udit Raj: I have got administrative experience. If responsibility is given then I'll happily discharge it. I went to RSS office just to meet seniors.
Q: One final question, what does Narendra Modi mean for Dalit community?
Udit Raj: Narendra Modi in his rallies in Bihar, UP, Kerala and other places has said that marginalized people will be taken care of and they will be included in growth and governance.
Q: Do you think Narendra Modi will be able to fulfill the dreams of Dalit community? He has been accused by Congress of being a pseudo OBC.
Udit Raj: Of course, why not? The congress will definitely do its dirty job. They did everything including caste politics and communal politics. What have they given to Dalits? Even today, Dalits need reservation. If there is no reservation, they are nowhere. This is all because of Congress. What Congress says is completely baseless.
