New Delhi: The Government has said that providing reservation to Backward Classes of Muslims minority community within 27% OBC quota is under its active consideration. Minister of Minority Affairs Salman Khurshid gave this information in Lok Sabha today in a written reply.
Dalit Muslims are already part of this quota and Muslims have long demanded that Dalit Muslims should be given same reservation benefit as other Dalits. Ranganath Misra Commission has also recommended removing religious discrimination when it comes to the benefits given to Dalits.
