Episode description
1990s remain one of the most turbulent decades of the modern India, and one of the three Ms that caused this turbulence was 'Mandal'. The report of Mandal commission, advocating caste based reservations, specifically, OBC quota in central government jobs and PSUs, was implemented in 1990.
In this episode, Sneha Gore Mehendale and Pradnya Shidore take an overview of 'affirmative action' that India has seen and what exactly is this much controversial term "mandal".
