JP Nadda On OBC Reservation: BJP National President JP Nadda has taunted the governments of non-BJP ruled states on the issue of OBC reservation. Nadda said in Bilaspur, Himachal Pradesh on Tuesday (June 13) that the opposition governments in Bihar, West Bengal, Rajasthan and Punjab are openly violating the constitutional rights of OBCs.

He said that these governments have been in favor of caste census. These parties talk about backward classes and their rights, but in reality they are not supporting it. Referring to Bihar, Nadda said that they started caste census, but deprived OBC communities of their rights. Citing the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC), Nadda said that the governments of West Bengal, Bihar, Rajasthan and Punjab, which claim to be friendly to OBCs, are violating their right to reservation in jobs. 

JP Nadda’s allegation on Bengal government 

The BJP chief accused Trinamool Congress chief and West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee of favoring Muslims. He said that 91.5 percent of the people who get the benefit of reservation in Bengal are Muslims while other backward classes are deprived of it. 

He alleged that a total of 179 castes have been included in the OBC list, out of which 118 castes belong to the Muslim community and efforts are being made to give OBC certificates to infiltrators from Bangladesh and Rohingyas. Nadda claimed that in 2011, there were 108 OBC communities which included 53 Muslim and 55 Hindu communities, but after adding 71 new castes, the number of Muslim OBCs went up to 118.

Chairman of NCBC gave a big statement

JP Nadda’s remarks came a few days after NCBC President Hansraj Gangaram Ahir accused the politics of appeasement in granting OBC status to communities in West Bengal. On June 8, Ahir had said that out of 179 OBC castes in West Bengal, 118 are from the Muslim community. There is appeasement politics behind giving OBC status to so many Muslim castes. Ahir also said that OBC reservation is not being implemented properly in Rajasthan, Punjab and Bihar.
