Why can't BJP, Shiv Sena, RSS, Sang Parwar, BD and others work along with Hindus in eradicating discrimination against Lower class people. Are Lower class Hindus or not Hindus?

I agree with you that caste system is an evil, and it is still prevalent in our society to some extent.
But I dont see the connection between this incident and caste discrimination. Please do let me know, if you are understand the connection.

No ones defening caste system here.
Other than not permitting non-Brahmins to be temple priests. I havent seen anyone openly defending caste based discrimination. Ok all of us have some of it inside. But publicly atleast most people try not to show it.
In anycase I dont why people are trying to project this incident as a caste issue.
I can see why Vayalar Ravi is trying to do it. Get some political mileage from this. Hes simply trying to generate some caste-hatred to get his communtiy to vote for him enmasse next time.

Discrimination is not getting equal opportunity. Only because he or she is lower class they are refused few rights. They can't worship, be a priest, etc.

I understand the "definition of caste-discrimination". But what has anything you said got to do with this incident.
The worst you can say about this incident is "religion" based discrimination. What has caste go to do with it.

Certainly, caste discrimination is evil. It must be removed from minds and hearts of every Hindu or if I say followers of Vaidik dharma. But, cast system in its ORIGINAL form was pure, scientific. It was an arrangement on simple and rational principle of division of labor. Today caste system which was caste-arrangement turned into caste-discrimination. Every true follower of Vaidik dharma must try to bring it back into its original form.

There is really no inferior people. In Metropolitan cities everyone sits together and from same hotel.
There are two problems
1> Vote bank politics of reservation giving steroid shots to casteism
2> Economic & Educational anaemic condition which breeds cheapness. Was the Gujjar riots any different from Somalian food riots?
