Reservations in India always stoked
passions for and against among people of the country. Father of Indian
Constitution, BR.Ambedkar too advocated reservations only for 10 years
but political parties continued reservations extending them and also
including new castes and sects for their own political ends.

This was witnessed inBihar assembly elections during which time RSS chief Mohan Bhagavatspoke about scrapping of reservations and PM Modi's BJP faced thenegative results. BJP was virtually wiped out in the elections.
