Lucknow, Feb 27 : Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment, Ramdas Athawale on Saturday demanded 15 per cent reservation for the Kshatriya community in Uttar Pradesh. Speaking to the media in Lucknow Athawale said, People of any community who live below the poverty line should be given reservation.
Commenting on the farmers protest, Athawale said the current National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government is not against the farmers, adding that we fully support them.
He said the demand for repealing the Union farm laws is unfair. If a law is withdrawn today, then there would be more similar demands made in the future. Taking a dig at the farmer leaders, he said the farmer leaders are causing inconvenience to the farmers.
