"The 27% reservation which they enjoy in the rest of the country is being denied in J&K," said Manjit Singh and added that the OBC should be given 27% reservation in Jammu and Kashmir so that the neglected community can get constitutional rights which is guaranteed by Ambedkar.
Speaking on the occasion, Provincial President, Women Wing, Jammu, Namrta Sharma said that the Constitution of India has given equal constitutional rights to the women in all the professions.
