Seizing upon Rahul Gandhi’s comments regarding quota, BSP leader Mayawati asserted on Tuesday that the Congress is planning to terminate reservation and advised members of the underprivileged groups to exercise caution following his “dangerous” declaration.
In response to Gandhi’s statement that the Congress will consider eliminating reservations when India is a fair country—which it is not at the moment—the former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh reacted.
The head of the BSP claimed that during its time in power, the Congress never carried out a caste census or implemented OBC reservation.
“Now it is dreaming of coming to power under its cover (of doing caste census). Beware of this drama of theirs (Congress), which will never be able to conduct caste census in the future,” she said on X.
“Now also beware of this drama of the supreme leader of the Congress party, Shri Rahul Gandhi, in which he has said abroad that when India will be in a better condition, they will end the reservation of SC, ST and OBC. It is clear from this that Congress has been conspiring for years to end their reservation,” she said.
