Union Minister Accuses Congress of Neglecting Backward Classes
A Union Minister from the BJP said that the Congress party did not do enough to help people from backward communities, called OBCs.
He said they ignored reports that suggested ways to improve the lives of these communities.
The Minister mentioned that OBCs helped Congress win elections but did not get enough benefits in return.
He gave credit to the BJP and a previous government for actually implementing programs for OBCs.
He added that because of this, the Congress lost power in many states.

Yadav stated Congress ignored the Kaka Kalelkar Commission and Mandal Commission reports.
