'RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, and his organisation are trying to curtail the reservation status of backwards,' he added.
Yadav also advised Prime Minister Modi to confer the 'Bharat Ratna' to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat for attempting to remove the reservations for backwards.
'This controversy of ending reservation has been crafted by the RSS and individuals of forward community in that organisation,' he added.
RSS chief Bhagwat had last week called for a 'social review' of the reservation policy in an interview to mouthpieces Organiser and Panchjanya.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies in Bihar however described reservations as a settled issue mandated by the Constitution.
