New Delhi: The government on Wednesday introduced in Rajya Sabha a legislation to give 10 per cent quota in state jobs and educational institutions for upper caste poor. Rajya Sabha adjourned till 2pm after uproar over the bill.

Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Thaawar Chand Gehlot introduced The Constitution (One Hundred and Twenth-Four Amendment) Bill 2019 amid slogan shouting by opposition Congress over the citizenship amendment bill.
