Patna: The 4.5% sub-quota for OBC minorities within the 27% OBC quota has triggered a hot debate not only among political parties but the Muslim community also. Muslim community leaders in Bihar are not opposing the move but they say that more important and necessary than this step was the long-pending demand of amendment in Article 341 and implementation of 10% quota for Muslims as recommended by Ranganath Mishra Commission. Some, however, apprehend that the sub-quota within OBC category can create tension and infighting among communities.
“This is a positive step that 4.5% out of 27% OBC quota is being fixed for Muslim OBCs. This will benefit them. But this is not the solution,” Afzal Hussain Khan, General Secretary, Bihar Rabeta Committee said while talking to TCN.

He demanded: “The entire Muslim community should be declared OBC and the recommendations of Sachar Committee and Ranganath Mishra Commission should be implemented in entirety.”
Mr Khan stressed on amendment in Article 341 as it will benefit more Muslims.
“Another major hindrance in Muslims’ political and social empowerment is the Article 341 which prevents deserving Muslims from the Scheduled Castes category. It is often said that on the basis of religion, no govt facilities can be given, but it is interesting that on the very basis of religion, the Muslims are kept from SC category. It is a grave injustice that a dhobi, a nut, a halalkhor if he is Hindu or Sikh or Buddhist, he will enjoy SC status but if he is Muslim or Christian he is kept out. In 1952, only Hindus were in SC category but over the years Sikh and Buddhist were included in that category,” he said.
However, Nayyaruzzaman, State President, Jamaat-e-Islami Bihar, does not think the sub-quota move is honest and fair. He apprehends it will cause anxiety and infighting.

“Government does not look fair and honest in the announcement of the 4.5% sub-quota. Before elections, government and parties have been doing such things to appease Muslims. The way they have given 4.5% from within the 27% OBC quota is not good. This will create anxiety and provoke infighting. This is not going to benefit Muslims in large way either,” Nayyaruzzaman said.
He also demanded 10% reservation to Muslims as recommended by Mishra Commission. “If they (government) had announced to implement 10% Muslim quota as recommended by Ranganath Mishra Commission that would have been a good step for the community, and we were satisfied,” he added.
But Nayyar Fatmi, Political Activist and Journalist, sees the sub-quota as a first step in right direction.

“This is a first step in right direction though it is insufficient. The commission on whose recommendation this 4.5% has been given had recommended about 6%. Yet, we welcome it,” Fatmi told TCN.
He also demands amendment in Article 341.
“But more important is the demand of amendment in Article 341. This 4.5% sub-quota will not benefit those Muslims who have been demanding their inclusion in the Scheduled Castes category on the basis of being socially, economically and even professionally similar to Hindu SCs. So, we will continue our fight for that until the government relents and fulfill our demand,” he said but reiterated: “However, this 4.5% sub-quota should not be opposed, we should welcome the beginning.”

Quote within Quota
What is wrong if all Muslims OBCs/HIndu OBCs/Christian OBCs clubbed together in the 27% reservation, after all these are all OBCs. Muslims should instead of arguing for quote within quota, identify those social groups ( remember the caste of Hinduism is illegal/unconstituitional and is almost dead.Muslims should not allow themselves to lead astray by the foolish argument that caste is hindu and muslims do not have caste) which are eligible for OBC status and put pressure on govt./political parties to include these groups in the OBC list. Let all OBCs unite and this will not only give a big blow to the communal forces but also help build a strong India.Not only communalists do not want this to happen but also our so-called secularists that is whay they keep on crying muslim reservation, minority reservation etc.
Regarding SC & ST Status for Muslims
Bhartiya Samvidhan sabhi Baratvasio ko bina nasal bhed or dharmik bhedbhav ke barabar unnati ke saman avsar pardan karne ka bharosa deta he. Magar vidambna dekho samvidhan ki Article 341 me Musalmano ko SC or ST me nahi rakha gaya. Jabki wahi sabhi jatiya jo dusre dharmo se talluq rakhti he unhe isme rakha gaya he. Muslim dhobi, Nat, mochi, kumhar adi ye sab wo jatiya he jo muslim or anya jati vargo me saman roop se he. Lekin Muslim abadi ka 80% hissa inhi jatiyo se talluq rakhta he. Ye Musalmano ke sath bhed bhav he jis karan Muslim varg mukhya dhara se cut ta ja raha he. Musalmano ko sirf SC & ST me shamil kiya jana chahiye. Iski wakalat State govts bhi kar chuki he. Andhra, UP, Tamilnadu, Bihar ke sarkaro ne samay samay per prstav pass karke Kendre Sarkar ko Bheje he, magar Kendre ne koi karwahi nahi ki..Q.?.. sUPRIM COURT BHI IS VISHAYE ME kENDRE SARKAR SE JAVAB MANG CHUKI HE MAGAR SALOO GUZAR JANE KE BAAD BHI IS PER KENDR SARKAR NE sUPRIM cOURT KO APNA JAVAB NAHI DIYA..ZARA SOCHIYE..Q..?..Sarkar kis baat ka intazar kar rahi he... Abke Elections me ye mudda Zoor Shoor Se uthana chahiye.
Ab sabhi bhartiyo ko jagruk hona padega..

Articles 341
Rule 1950 within the article 341 of the Indian Constitution must be amended. Without amended the rule 1950 with in article 341 there is no benefit for the Muslims. Government must adopt the Justice Rangnath Mishra report honestly.
DON;T TRY TO FOOL MUSLIMS, Mr. PRIME MINISTER
Mr. PRIME MINISTER
YOU CAN FOOL SOME MUSLIMS FOR A LONG TIME; MIGHT BE ABLE TO FOOL A MAJORITY OF MEMBERS OF THE MUSLIM MINORITY COMMUNITY FOR A LONG TIME. BUT IF YOU IMAGINE THAT YOU CAN FOOL ALL INDIAN MUSLIMS FOR EVER, IT IS HIGH TIME YOU GET YOURSELF EXAMINED IN AN INSTITUTE OF MENTAL HEALTH

3.1% for OBC Muslims not 4.5%.
Please be careful with facts.4.5% is for overall Minorities[christians,Sikhs, Jains,Parsis and Bhuddist].
Muslim share in this is only 3.1% subject to Judicial approval and 1.4% is to be shared by OBC's from other Minorities.
The UPA has announced this 3.1% reservation to Muslims in central government jobs and central government educational Institutions.
The Congress led UPA government has repackaged the Mandal benefits which were given to Muslim OBC's by V.P.Singh government in 1990.2% of Muslim OBC's are already taking these Mandal benefits from last 20 years.
This announcement only re-enforces Muslim OBC's claim in the 27% Mandal cake,which Hindu OBC's were not prepared to share.
In various states Muslim OBC's are also getting reservations up to 5%.
The Hindu Dalits are also not prepared for an amendment in Article 341 to include Muslim Dalits in 23% reservation cake for all Dalits except Christian and Muslim Dalits.

Muslims Enjoy 98% reservation each
INDIAN MUSLIMS have 98-100% RESERVATION in Pak and Bangla- 98% of army men, police, clerks, ministers, PM, President, Lawyers, Doctors, Collectors, Judges etc etc are all INDIAN MUSLIMS- all were Indian Muslims till 14-8-1947- in PAKISTAN and INDIA. If Indian Muslims have 98% reservation in PAK and BANGLA and get further 20% reservation in India MUSLIMS will enjoy 216% reservation. When ABDUL KALAM was President of India 300% Presidents were Indian Muslims- India, Pak and Bangla had INDIAN MUSLIM PRESIDENTS. So INDIAN MUSLIMS MUST GO TO PAK/BANGLA AND ENJOY 98% RESERVATION EACH.
OK, I am an Indian Muslim and
OK, I am an Indian Muslim and as you suggested I am leaving for Pakistan/Bangladesh............LOL
