Due to the new rules of UGC, there were reports of protests in different states of the country. On this matter, BJP leader Nishikant Dubey wrote on social media that if Modi is there then it is possible, have faith that all the misconceptions of UGC notification will be removed. He said that according to Articles 14 and 15 of the Constitution, there is no difference between Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe, Backward Class and general class.
The general category got 10 percent reservation only and only because of Honorable Prime Minister Modi ji. After the implementation of Mandal Commission in 1990, all the political parties of this country formed the government, but only Modi ji gave justice. He wrote in the post that wait, the misconceptions about UGC will also end.

Shiv Sena UBT MP Priyanka Chaturvedi said that any kind of caste discrimination in the campus is wrong. Many students in India have already suffered its consequences. But shouldn't the law be inclusive and ensure that everyone is equally protected? Then why this discrimination in the implementation of the law? What will happen in case of false cases?
How will fault be determined? How to define discrimination? He said whether through words, actions or perceptions? The process of law enforcement should be clear, precise and equal for all. She said, therefore, instead of creating a negative atmosphere in the campus, I request that this notification of UGC be either withdrawn or necessary amendments should be made in it.
On this matter, Bhim Army Chief and Nagina MP Chandrashekhar Azad said that the only one who is protesting is the one who wants to cut off Eklavya's thumb by exploiting it on the basis of caste, no one else has any problem with this. If the decision is reversed because of a few people, then 85% of us will take to the streets.
Responding to a question related to UGC, Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya said that the upper caste community is not angry. He clarified that the objective of the government's policies is not to leave any section behind, but to advance those sections which have historically lagged behind in the race of development. He said that balance is necessary in the process of social justice and the government is working in that direction. Keshav Prasad Maurya said that efforts are being made to take forward those who have been left behind. There is no injustice being done to any society in this. After his statement the political reaction intensified.
