Union ministers Chirag Paswan and Jitan Ram Manjhi spar over SC/ST quotas, seek each other's resignation

Two Union ministers clashed over the reservation policy and its implementation. Chirag Paswan demanded Jitan Ram Manjhi's resignation over his son's remarks. Manjhi's son called for a review of reservation benefits and sub-categorization. Paswan argued reservation is social, not economic, and opposes a creamy layer for SCs.
