Reservation not charity: Chirag Paswan amid anti-quota protest at Jantar Mantar
Union Minister Chirag Paswan said on Friday that reservations cannot be abolished at anyone's demand. He told reporters that it is a constitutional right meant to support communities facing social discrimination. “Reservation is not something that can be ended at anyone's demand, nor is it charity given to anyone,” he said.
