NEW DELHI: Leader of opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi interacted with the DUSU students and discussed the " anti-reservation " moves by the Central Universities and IITs that was resulting into disqualification of qualified SC,ST and OBC candidates.
Sharing a video on X on Tuesday, Rahul questioned the use of "Not Found Suitable" category to disqualify applicants.
"Not Found Suitable is the new Manuism now. Qualified SC/ST/OBC candidates are being deliberately 'disqualified' - to keep them away from education and leadership. Babasaheb had said: Education is the biggest weapon for equality. But the Modi government is busy blunting that weapon. In Delhi University, more than 60% of the reserved posts of professors and more than 30% of the reserved posts of associate professors have been kept vacant by calling them NFS," he said.
"This is no exception - IITs, Central Universities, the same conspiracy is going on everywhere. NFS is an attack on the Constitution. NFS is a betrayal of social justice. This is not just a fight for education and employment – it is a fight for rights, respect and participation. I spoke to DUSU students - now together we will respond to every anti-reservation move of BJP/RSS with the power of the Constitution," he added.
Meanwhile, PM Modi on Sunday hailed the decision to conduct caste census and said that it was a means to include those left behind in the development process.
He stressed that his government focuses not on caste-based politics, but on empowering the marginalised. Last month, the Centre announced that the upcoming population census will include caste data — marking the first time caste details will be recorded since independence.

‘Not Found Suitable’ अब नया मनुवाद है।
— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) May 27, 2025
SC/ST/OBC के योग्य उम्मीदवारों को जानबूझकर ‘अयोग्य’ ठहराया जा रहा है - ताकि वे शिक्षा और नेतृत्व से दूर रहें।
बाबासाहेब ने कहा था: शिक्षा बराबरी के लिए सबसे बड़ा हथियार है। लेकिन मोदी सरकार उस हथियार को कुंद करने में जुटी है।
