In a recent public meeting held in Nandurbar, Maharashtra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a bold statement regarding the reservation policies in India. He accused the ‘Maha Aghadi’ of running a campaign that he referred to as ‘aarakshan ke maha bakshan ka maha abhiyaan’, implying that they are exploiting the reservation system.
On the contrary, PM Modi claimed that he is conducting a ‘maha yagya’ to protect the reservations of the Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC). He emphasized his commitment to safeguarding the rights of these communities and ensuring that they continue to benefit from the reservation policies.
PM Modi also threw a challenge at the Congress party, which has remained unanswered for the past 17 days. He asked the Congress to provide written assurance that they will not cut the reservation of SC, ST, and OBC communities and allocate a portion of it to the Muslim community. The Congress party’s silence on this matter has led PM Modi to believe that they have a hidden agenda.
This statement from the Prime Minister has stirred up a heated debate on the reservation policies in India. It remains to be seen how the Congress party will respond to PM Modi’s challenge and what impact this will have on the political landscape of the country.
