I hope congress dont fullfill these promises if it comes to power
What started out as a noble method to seek representation of oppressed communities has only reduced to a source of votebank politics. "Not winning elections? Impose a quota." Everyday, we have a new community demanding backward status and the political parties cater to them because otherwise how would they secure their votes. Marathas, Patidars, Jat quota agitations are the prime examples. The talk about imposing quotas on private educational institutions is super insane because I am sure the man does not know about Article 19. While in their speeches, he has even talked about imposing quotas on private jobs, the same is not mentioned in the manifesto just so he does not lose the 'vote-bank' of people handling businesses and corporates.
I really hope Congress is reduced to less than 30 seats this time around, so this man can take retirement and let party be with the few sensible leaders, who are still left in the party. The India of 2024 does not need this Congress. India needs to move forward. Any effort to slow it down must be resisted.
