Congress changed political strategy in Winter session of Parliament to woo OBC and Dalit vote bank – India Hindi News – Congress changed strategy to woo OBC and SC/ST, made these two issues weapons;
The winter session of the Parliament is starting from next Wednesday i.e. 7th December. In view of this, all the political parties have started making their own strategies. The main opposition party Congress has said to raise the issue of unemployment, inflation, China border issue along with EWS reservation and caste census to surround the Narendra Modi government at the Center.
Senior party leader and Congress media in-charge Jairam Ramesh has said that Congress is in favor of caste census, it is necessary to get it done. He has also talked about raising the EWS reservation in the Parliament in the winter session and discussing it. Ramesh said that since 3 judges of the Supreme Court have agreed on the amendment and two judges have raised questions on it, the Congress will demand a reconsideration of it in Parliament and would like to have a debate in Parliament.
Let us tell you that the central government is not in favor of the caste census, while many opposition parties, which are also allies of the Congress, are in favor of the caste census. The Nitish government of Bihar, in which the Congress is also involved, is conducting caste census. The Jharkhand government, which includes the Congress, is also in favor of the caste census.
Means such political parties whose vote bank is OBC castes and Dalit castes, they are in favor of caste census. Many of these parties have also been opposed to upper caste reservation on economic grounds. When the Supreme Court in its recent verdict on EWS reservation has given a three-to-two majority and appeals have been filed against it, then the Congress has changed its strategy to discuss it again in the Parliament. demanded.
Actually, by doing this, Congress is trying to connect itself with that OBC and SC-ST vote bank, which has been separated from it and at present a large part of it is with BJP. Political experts say that until the OBC vote bank is not disenchanted with the BJP, its victory march will continue.
Working in this direction, the governments of many opposition parties have also increased the reservation limit in their states, so that OBC and Dalit vote banks can be found together and BJP can be held against their interests. By raising these issues in Parliament, the Congress is trying to create such an atmosphere across the country before the 2024 general elections.
