‘I Did Not Protect OBCs…’: Rahul Gandhi Admits Congress Failed To Respond To OBC Issues

Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, admitted that the Congress party failed to effectively address the aspirations of Other Backward Classes (OBCs) over the past years. Speaking to party leaders in Telangana, he said this lack of focus allowed the BJP to gain support among backward communities. While acknowledging the Congress’s efforts on Dalit, Adivasi, and women’s issues, he said OBC outreach was inadequate. Rahul termed it a personal mistake for not pushing a caste census earlier and promised to correct it. He emphasised the need for Congress to be more responsive to all communities going forward, ensuring fairness and inclusion.#rahulgandhi #congress #obcaspirations #castecensus #indianpolitics #socialjustice #obcoutreach #bjp #indiangovt #politicalstrategy #backwardclasses #telanganamodel #toi #toibharat
