BJP Leader Warns Government Over Reservation Promises
A senior leader from the BJP party, A. Narayanaswamy, held a press conference in Belagavi.
He warned the government that if they don't properly implement internal reservation in job promotions for certain communities, these communities might try to overthrow the government.
He said that other states like Haryana and Tamil Nadu already have this system in place.
He also mentioned that the Supreme Court has said that the reservation limit can be more than 50% if there's a need.
He was disappointed that despite many reports and a long struggle, the government hasn't done enough to help these communities.
BJP leader A. Narayanaswamy warned the government about the consequences of not implementing internal reservation in promotions.
He demanded an amendment in the legislature to ensure internal reservation in promotions.
