Diggy Chacha asks government to ban jokes on homosexuals
LGBT community gets right voice in the form of Diggy Chacha
Voicing the noises of LGBT community in India, one of most afflicted minorities, Digvijay Singh (Diggy Chacha) said "Making mockery or jokes on homosexuals should be banned. I also recommend a legitimate quota for the community."
Chacha's statement came in the context of Additional Solicitor-General PP Malhotra's arguments to the court that same-sex relations were "highly immoral and against societal order". This statement can also be connected to increasing scenes in the bollywood movies, e.g. 'Jodi Breakers' depicting fun on homosexuality.
Diggy Chacha said "Malhotra's statement is itself a joke on the gay community and represents the thought-process of terror organizations such as RSS in India which is against the full freedom to Indians for identifying partners. I request Indian government to look in the matters and stop kidding over Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgender (LGBT) community which is also a minority in India. I request the law minister to put a CBI and RAW inquiry on PP Malhotra whether he is a RSS guy."
Talking exclusively to Diggy Chacha Fan Club (DCFC) correspondent, Diggy Chacha said his statement should not be taken in the political context made to attract a new vote bank of minority community, as like it did about Muslims and dalits.
He said "We are not playing a vote bank politics. I just wanted to stress on the point that Congress always supported the minority communities in India and will support LGBT community as well."
When DCFC reporter asked Diggy Chacha whether LGBT community people will get reservation or legitimate quota in government jobs and education, he said "We are in a discussion with Madamji and final outcome will come as early as possible."
However, he thrashed the rumor that the government was thinking of granting 9% reservation to LGBT community out of Akhilesh Singh Yadav's demand for 18% reservation to Muslims.
"No way, we are not thinking from that point-of-view. It is a rumor," said Diggy Chacha.
However, to the disappointment of many gay people in India who were dreaming about him, he denied that he himself was gay.
"No no. I am not gay and even Rahul Baba is also straight-forward," Chacha smirked. "This effort is just to ensure the rights of minorities," he said.
When DCFC reporter asked afflicted Bonobo and other apes also represent homosexual community and would they also consider for the reservation. Diggy Chacha said "I heard that Apes are now very near to human beings in their evolution process and we can grant them voting rights as well. They are also our brothers. Congress takes care of everybody besides that I am sure they also might have heard the name 'Congress, Baba and Madamji' rather than Maya, Mamta, Mulayam and BJP. Therefore, I would recommend Election Commission to draw a proper plan for voting rights to apes."
