The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) attacked the Trinamool Congress (TMC) government after the Calcutta High Court on Wednesday dismissed all Other Backward Classes (OBC) certificates issued in West Bengal since 2010. The BJP called it a big blow to Mamata Banerjee's "appeasement politics" in their scathing attack. "In another blow to Mamata Banerjee’s regressive appeasement politics, the Calcutta High Court has struck down Muslim reservation under the OBC sub-category. It has also invalidated all OBC certificates issued between 2010-2024. Those admitted, if they manage to retain their jobs, won’t be entitled for any further benefits," BJP leader Amit Malviya posted on X. On Wednesday, a division bench of Justice Tapabrata Chakraborty and Rajasekhar Mantha pronounced the verdict while delivering a judgment on a PIL challenging the process of granting OBC certificates. PM Narendra Modi Pans Mamata Banerjee for Her Remarks Against ISKCON, Ramakrishna Mission and Bharat Sevashram Sangha.
