She claims the BJP wants to increase reservations for non-General categories, citing cherry-picked lines from the BRAUSS, Mahajan, and Gaikwad reports that BJP state governments used in court.
Facts:
The only new reservation the BJP introduced is the EWS quota, exclusively for the General Category.
The BJP did not hike SC, ST or OBC quotas as alleged in those reports.
Extreme recommendations in those reports (like a 50% or 35% OBC quota) were completely ignored by the BJP.
State lawyers cited these reports in court strictly for population and survey data - not to endorse every opinion or demand in them.
Controversial remarks on the Varna system or history were written by a 1980, Congress-appointed panel and independent retired judges, not by the BJP
