Congress gave Muslims quota via backdoor in Karnataka: PM Modi

IndiaTimes Thursday, 25 April 2024
PM Modi on Thursday accused Congress of including Muslims as a whole in the OBC list in Karnataka “through the backdoor” and promoting reservation on religious lines in violation of the Constitution. He said when the Constitution was drafted, to protect the unity and integrity of the country, it was decided that there won’t be religion-based reservation. He said Congress’s decision to declare all Muslims in Karnataka as “backward”, on a par with OBCs, was inimical to the interests of backward classes.
