BJP MP K Laxman alleged in Rajya Sabha on Monday that opposition-ruled states like Telangana, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Kerala include all Muslims in Other Backward Classes (OBC) quotas, prompting an opposition walkout. He claimed this violates reservation policy against religion-based quotas. Leader of the House JP Nadda criticised the walkout.
