New Delhi: The Congress party has criticized the central government for reporting more than 8.2 lakh sanctioned posts lying vacant in various civilian establishments, alleging that the Modi government is covertly planning to end reservations. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge stated that the BJP's actions expose their policy of conspiring to undermine the constitutional rights of marginalized communities.
The BJP's alleged strategy involves keeping government posts unfilled, selling state-owned enterprises (PSUs), converting permanent jobs into contractual positions, and ultimately snatching away reservation opportunities for SCs, STs, OBCs, and EWS. Kharge emphasized that these actions do not require constitutional amendments but simply the elimination of jobs with reservations to achieve the BJP's anti-social justice agenda.
