At a public at Belpahar in Jharsuguda district of Odisha during the ongoing Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, Rahul said that Modi was born in a general caste but his community was given OBC status after the BJP came to power.
"PM Modi often questions the need for reservation to OBC and claims he is an OBC himself. But let me tell you, Modi was never born to OBC category. All of you are being fooled.
Modi was born to Teli community in Gujarat. But his community was categorized as OBC by the BJP government in 2000.
Your PM was born to general caste. He was not an OBC. He has been lying everywhere that he was born to OBC category," Rahul said.
