Anti-quota protests: Chirag Paswan says govt open to talks if demands set systematically

Union minister Chirag Paswan has signaled that the government plans to engage with the anti-reservation protesters who have rallied at Jantar Mantar. These protesters are advocating for an economic basis for reservations rather than a caste-based system. Paswan noted the existing 10 percent reservation for economically weaker sections and criticized the Congress for their protests outside a police station. Tejashwi Yadav’s backing of students’ protests aligns with his political stance.
