TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday asked the BJP government in Karnataka to convene an assembly session and implement the Justice Nagamohan Das Commission report to increase reservation for Scheduled Castes and Tribes (SCs and STs) in the state.
Addressing a public gathering at Brahmha Devarahalli village in this district during the Karnataka leg of Bharat Jodo Yatra, he alleged that the Centre’s now-repealed three farm laws are still there in Karnataka and they are designed to create thousands of widows in the state.
He also said that there are “two Indias” being created by the ruling BJP where farmers are being forced to take loan at 24 per cent interest and rich industrialists are getting it at only six per cent.
“The ST reservation should be increased from three per cent to seven per cent and the SC reservation should be increased from 15 to 17 per cent. “The BJP government has not acted on the (Justice Das Commission) report for over two years. They should call an assembly session and implement the report immediately,” Gandhi said amid cheers in the crowds.
