The BJP was part of the government at the time of implementation of Mandal Commission. The Congress did the work to stop this. Everyone knows what was Rajiv Gandhi’s attitude regarding Mandal Commission.

A scathing attack on Rahul Gandhi
On the question of abolishing the limit of 50% reservation, Dharmendra Pradhan rejected Rahul Gandhi’s response to the ethnic census. He said that Rahul Gandhi’s words should not be taken seriously. They do not even know the difference between survey and census. He further said that by reading the letters and statements of Nehru and Rajiv Gandhi, the Congress should apologize to the country.

Digital India pointed
Dharmendra Pradhan called the caste census a political ATM for some parties and said that Modi ji has closed this ATM by bringing a digital payment system. Bihar was also mentioned during the press conference. Dharmendra Pradhan told that when the caste survey was conducted in Bihar, the BJP supported it.

‘Congress cannot bear the condition of Congress’- Eknath Shinde
At the same time, while targeting the Congress, Eknath Shinde said, “The condition of the Congress, which talks about ‘Save the Constitution’, has become ‘and can not even say’. This party, which has only demanded a showy demand for caste -based census, has never taken any concrete decision on it, but due to its votebank politics, it never gave such a census.”

‘PM Modi has never back down from taking historical decisions’- Eknath Shinde
At the same time, when a copy of the Constitution is taken on Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders, Eknath Shinde said, “It is easy to raise slogans of ‘Save the Constitution’ with an empty red diary in hand, but taking strict decisions is not the case for everyone.
