A number of opposition leaders on Friday slammed Rashtriya Swayemsevak Sangh (RSS) senior functionary Manmohan Vaidya's remarks against reservation.

Vaidya, head of the RSS communications department, said at Jaipur Literature Festival (JLF) on Friday that no reservation should continue for long and the reason for the poor socio-economic status of the Muslims is that a vast majority of them belong to economically backward states.

Vaidya and RSS Joint General Secretary Dattatreya Hosabale were participating in a discussion on "Of Saffron and the Sangha", at the JLF.

Reacting to Vaidya's remarks, Rshtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad said reservation is a Constitutional right, not a donation by a "casteist organisation like the RSS".
