If casteism ends, we are ready to give up reservation: Athawale
Union Minister Ramdas Athawale stated that if caste-based discrimination were eliminated, the government would consider ending reservation policies. He urged opponents of reservations to enter constructive dialogue and articulate specific concerns. Athawale emphasized that any change should be based on consensus and a clear understanding of the social implications, rather than unilateral demands and in the public sphere.
