PM Modi to give quota to more backward OBCs
PM Modi on Sunday made quite a strong pitch for a quota within OBC quota for the more backward. These people are large in number but are too splintered to benefit from the reservation for OBCs like the advanced OBCs do .
Hence the PM has stated that the government is considering a sub-categorization of the OBCs so that the backward sections can obtain more access to the reservation for OBCs.This change has been in works for a while and has also allowed BJP to win the 2017 UP election by a majority.
This can be considered as a political move, advantageous in especially UP, as majority of the OBCs are backward and are heterogeneous who were unable to use reservation to their advantage. Now, they are slowly uniting, especially on the political front, to vote for political figures, whose being in power may prove to be more advantageous to them.
