With only few weeks left for big Maharashtra assembly elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on  Friday launched an all-out attack on Congress over remarks by the party’s state chief Nana Patole on reservation.

While the BJP alleged that Congress wants to end reservation for SCs/STs, Patole accused the ruling party of spreading a fake narrative.

“What did Rahul Gandhi say? Rahul Gandhi said we will think about reservation when everybody will become equal,” Patole was heard as saying in one of viral clips being circulated by the BJP on social media.

The Maharashtra Congress chief later clarified, “Rahul Gandhi expressed Baba Saheb’s (BR Ambedkar) views. Our Constitution is the center point of Baba Saheb’s ideology. BJP is creating a fake narrative because they don’t know about the Constitution.”
