New Delhi:
A constitution amendment bill that gives states the right to make their own list of Other Backward Classes, got the support of the Opposition that has been targeting the centre over a range of issues and has caused disruptions in Parliament.
While a constitution amendment bill requires two-thirds majority to get passage in Parliament, but with the Opposition coming on board it will be not be an issue.
“This is a big issue, we are going to support the centre on it. And we will also push for caste-based census,” said RJD’s Manoj Sinha
“Running Parliament is centre’s responsibility. This bill will allow states the right to make their own Other Backward Classes (OBC) list,” Mr Sinha added.
