"Rahul Gandhi Is Yet To Grasp How Government Functions": Anurag Thakur

The Congress leader has been alleging that the BJP-led government was ignoring OBCs, who despite being the largest castes group numerically, have little representation in the top echelons of governance.

Union Minister Anurag Thakur on Monday suggested Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to get good advisers to understand the nuances of governance.

"After being in politics all these years, and 10 years of the Congress being in government, Rahul Gandhi is yet to grasp how the government functions or takes decisions," the senior BJP leader said, taking a dig at Mr Gandhi over his claim that out of 90 secretaries of the government of India, only three are from Other Backward Classes (OBC) and control only five per cent of the Budget.
