BJP's Sushil Modi Accuses Congress Of Not Doing Enough For Deprived Sections

"No one else except (Prime Minister) Narendra Modi will work for the SCs, STs and OBCs," senior BJP leader Sushil Modi said.

The ruling BJP tried to corner the Congress in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday for allegedly not doing enough for the SCs, STs and OBCs despite ruling the country for decades, and claimed that it was only the governments of which the Jan Sangh or the Bharatiya Janata Party was a part that actually worked for the uplift of the deprived sections of the society. The Upper House of Parliament was debating the Constitution (127th Amendment) Bill, 2021 that seeks to restore the states' power to prepare their own OBC lists. It has already been cleared by the Lok Sabha. As on the other days of the Monsoon Session of Parliament, the House proceedings were disrupted in the opening hour due to an Opposition uproar over various issues, including the Pegasus snooping row and farm laws. However, the logjam was ended and the House took up the key legislation.
