Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat, addressing a youth interaction summit, emphasised that affirmative action policies must remain active until social discrimination is completely eradicated from society. Mohan Bhagwat invoked the core principles of BR Ambedkar, attempting to realign the stance on reservation policies, claiming that reservation exists due to social reasons.
Pointing out that policy frameworks should be evaluated through historical guidelines, Bhagwat directed attention toward the structural vision laid down by the architect of the Constitution, Dr BR Ambedkar. He remarked that growing demands for categorisation and recent judicial pointers indicate an organic shift in how reservation benefits are distributed.
