Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): State president of Rajput Karni Sena (Mool) Shivpratap Singh Chouhan said that if major political parties field OBC candidates on general category seats in the upcoming panchayat and civic elections, then they will have to face a lot of opposition. A petition in this regard will be filed in the High Court on Monday
Chouhan told media persons here that the Karni Sena had always been opposed to the reservation. They had protested many times by taking to the streets. But as of today, be it anyone's government, everyone had bypassed the common class and cheated them. The state government should clarify its position on the policy of reservation.
The government sometimes says that the decision of the court will be valid, but now it is knocking on the doors of the court, despite the recent ruling delivered by the Supreme Court.
Chouhan said that Karni Sena does not want to snatch anyone’s right but at the same time it will not go against its right and will oppose any move to field OBC candidates on general category seats by any party.
