PM Modi says poor, farmers, women and youth should have..: BJP leader weighs in on Bengal OBC row

Union Minister Mahendra Nath Pandey lauded PM Modi's policies, emphasizing that resources should prioritize the poor, farmers, women, and youth. He criticized Congress for allegedly reallocating OBC quotas to Muslims in Karnataka. His comments followed Mamata Banerjee's opposition to the Calcutta High Court invalidating OBC certificates issued since 2010, which she plans to challenge. Tripura OBC Morcha president Malina Debnath supported the court's decision, accusing the TMC of adding Muslims to the OBC category for electoral gains without proper surveys.
