New Delhi: BJP on Thursday came down heavily on the UPA for its alleged failure to present the OBC reservation case before the apex court.
"This judgement clearly reflects the lack of homework done from the government's side," BJP leader Ravi Shanker Prasad said at a press conference here.
BJP has also demanded that the government take a "comprehensive" view the policy aimed at uplift of disadvantaged section.
"The apex court decision is the result of the UPA government's abject failure to project its case of social backwardness in the right perspective", party spokesman Prakash Jawadekar said.
He insisted that his party was in support of reservation for OBCs and SCs and STs and said a comprehensive view aimed at their uplift would resolve the issue once and for all.
"The government must, therefore, take a comprehensive view of the reservation policy and accord further reservation to poorer section of such caste and communities that are not covered under the 50 per cent quota", Jawadekar said.
