Rahul Gandhi claimed that PM Modi was born into Teli ‘upper caste’ Modh Ghanchi family and is not from the OBC community as he claims and his party’s government included his caste as OBC in 2000. It is interesting to note that Gandhi very shrewdly twisted the facts here.
As per the Caste Census report, 27% state population comes under the backward classes while 36% falls in the extremely backward classes categorisation.
