In response, Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is attempting to destroy the constitution with a ‘distorted version’ of Ram Rajya and is trying to strip away reservation rights for marginalized communities. He called it an attack on Dalits, OBCs, and Adivasis and highlighted the issue on the social media platform ‘X’. Gandhi also claimed that Prime Minister Modi is attempting to recruit public servants through the RSS instead of UPSC, which he considers a direct attack on the constitution.

Government ally Chiranjeevi Paswan also expressed concern about this recruitment process, stating that reservation in any government appointment is essential. He noted that while there is no reservation in the private sector, the absence of reservation in government positions is alarming and that he will raise this issue before the central government.

In his letter, Jitendra Singh mentioned that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a supporter of reservation in public service and that his government is committed to strengthening social justice. He requested UPSC Chairperson Preeti Sudan to review and cancel the advertisement released on August 17.

The letter also referenced the initiation of lateral entry during the UPA government, mentioning that the central government first considered it in 2005 under the chairmanship of Veerappa Moily, and discussions on such appointments took place in 2013 during the UPA government. It also discussed the appointment of super bureaucracy in UIDAI and the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).

In light of the protests against the lateral entry process, the government decided to cancel the recruitment advertisement. This decision indicates that the government has opted to amend its policy considering the sensitivity of various societal groups regarding the reservation issue.

The facility was established as a national project at a cost of over Rs 2,700 crore and has a campus area of roughly 123 acres, according to the PMO’s announcement on Monday. It was erected after a refurbishment of the aged and outmoded buildings in Pragati Maidan.
The G20 summit will take place at the complex in September of this year, which was built to be the greatest MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) attraction in the nation. According to the PMO, the IECC Complex is among the best exposition and convention complexes in the world in terms of the covered space accessible for events.
The new facility is in line with PM Modi’s vision of having a world-class infrastructure for hosting meetings, it added.

The building’s shape is inspired by the shape of a conch shell, and its walls and facade show off a bunch of different pieces of art and culture. It’s got a lot of different symbols, like’shankha’ which symbolizes the country’s solar energy efforts, ‘zero to ISRO’ which celebrates the country’s space accomplishments, and ‘pancha mahabhuta’, which symbolizes the foundation of a universal foundation. It also has a bunch of other symbols, like ‘akash’ which is the sky, ‘vajra’, ‘air’, ‘agni’, ‘fire’, ‘jal’, ‘water’ and ‘parvati’ which is the earth, among others.
