In a bold move, Praveen Togadia, national president of Rashtriya Bajrang Dal, has called for all 50 seats at Vaishno Devi Medical College to be exclusively reserved for Hindus, amid concerns about current allocation.
Speaking during an event in Jammu, he expressed strong resistance against the inclusion of Muslim candidates, threatening intensified agitations if the demands are ignored.
With the recent NEET-based admissions including a majority of Muslim candidates, Togadia's assertion has stirred controversy, challenging Jammu's local administration to reconsider existing admission policies.
