PM should have gone into reservation in private sector: Mayawati

Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati said, "Narendra Modi should have delved on extending reservation to the backward caste in private sector. Reservation to poor people from upper castes is also needed." She was reacting to Mr. Modi's speech in Rajya Sabha, on Monday.

"The quota of SC/ST should be increased and more communities should be included," she said.

The leader blamed the BJP and Congress for implicating her in Taj Corridor scam, and accused them of misusing the CBI to implicate her in NRHM scam ahead of Uttar Pradesh elections.

The CBI had quizzed the BSP chief regarding the reasons for an “irregular” bifurcation of the Health and Family Welfare Department during her tenure between 2007 and 2012.

"Dalits who have converted to other religions should also be given reservation, due to their precarious condition there," she added.

Ms. Mayawati said, "Backward class should take political power in hands to change their fate, it is the master key."
