Upper castes should be given 15% reservation: Union Minister
On being asked if he feels something needs to be done for some upper castes, Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan said, "Why 'something'? They should be given 15% reservation." "The BJP can never have an anti-upper-caste perception. Upper castes are the backbone of the BJP. They are the party's natural allies," the Lok Janshakti Party leader added.
