renaming dadar station as 'Chaityabhoomi'


As the battle for Dalit votes ahead of the civic elections in Maharashtra  got interesting amid reports that the Sharad Pawar  lead Nationalist Congress Party is mulling a resolution on renaming Dadar railway station in Mumbai as'Chaityabhoomi' station, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray said he was opposed to any such move.
"I am opposed to renaming of any sort. What issues are going to be resolved by renaming," Raj told media-persons .
'Chaityabhoomi' is the memorial of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar (he was cremated there in 1956), near Dadar railway station in central Mumbai.
Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee president Manikrao Thakre on Monday said that his party supported the demand to rename of Dadar railway station in the city as 'Chaityabhoomi Terminus'. they think that this will make dalit people some help as they are equal. 
this is absolutely very wrong thing  to rename dadar. changing name will not help dalit people rather helping them by providing job, food education can help them to grow. dadar name has its own historical value .I would request others also to stop renaming of dadar .congress is already in deep trouble having various scams so changing name will not add any thing to their vote bank.
I’m against this issue as we are giving dalit people many reservation but changing name of station is a wrong process I think we all should be opposed on this issue
