In a fiery exchange, the Congress party has taken aim at Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar following his criticism of Rahul Gandhi's recent remarks on reservations and caste census.
Responding to Dhankhar's statements, Congress leaders have questioned where his loyalties lie, considering his apparent opposition to the caste census and increased reservations for marginalized communities.
