“We have been demanding a caste census for last three years. Caste census should be conducted as it would bring the actual facts before the country. Prima facie, it seems the caste census would help in facilitating the decision on increasing the reservation limit. The picture will become clear after the census is completed. Besides, the reservation percentage will also have to be increased if what Rahul Gandhi is saying happens.”
Sharad Pawar, President, NCP (SP)
“Whatever he (Sadashiv Khot) said was highly condemnable. I told him that nobody liked your remarks about Pawar saheb. I told him that making personal remarks about someone is not our method. I also told him that it must not happen against Pawar saheb or any leader, irrespective of any party.”
Ajit Pawar, President, NCP
“Despite being in politics for over 40 years and bringing many industries to Baramati, Sharad Pawar never truly considered the broader interests of Maharashtra. As a chief Minister, Pawar was expected to have a vision for the entire state. He held the CM’s position three times and even served as Union Agriculture Minister. Look at Baramati - how many industries have flourished there. Couldn’t some of these be established in Marathwada and Vidarbha?”
Raj Thackeray, Chief, MNS
“The Congress should first answer why it insulted the Constitution and late Dr Ambedkar. The Congress had even ensured Dr Ambedkar’s defeat. Nehru initially did not want Ambedkar in his cabinet. The spirit of the Constitution was attacked in 1975, and democracy was murdered.”
Kiren Rijiju, Union Minister
