In a heated exchange during the Lok Sabha discussion on the Women's Reservation Bill, Prime Minister Narendra Modi responded to accusations from Samajwadi Party MP Dharmendra Yadav, who claimed that Modi, despite being from the Other Backward Classes (OBC), neglects their interests. Modi expressed gratitude for the acknowledgment of his background and reiterated his belief in taking everyone along, emphasizing the importance of the Constitution in his role. He stated, 'It is my duty to take everyone along,' highlighting the significance of the Constitution in empowering individuals from backward castes like himself. Yadav, opposing the Women's Reservation Bill, the Delimitation Bill, and the Union Territories Laws (Amendment) Bill, argued that these measures distort constitutional principles by separating the delimitation exercise from the Census process. He insisted that the Samajwadi Party would not support the Women's Reservation Bill unless it included specific provisions for OBC and Muslim women. Home Minister Amit Shah responded, asserting that the Census process is underway and a caste-based census will follow, countering Yadav's claims about delays. This exchange underscores the ongoing political tensions regarding caste representation in India.
