Yadav was known for his strong stand on social justice and was instrumental in the implementation of the Mandal Commission report, which led to the reservation of seats in government jobs and educational institutions for the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in 1990. Born on July 1, 1946, in the village of Akhmau in the district of Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Yadav completed his post-graduation in Political Science from Patna University. He began his political career as a student leader and later joined the Jayaprakash Narayan-led movement against the Emergency imposed by the Indira Gandhi-led government in 1975.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1974, Yadav was elected as the president of the Patna University Students&#8217; Union and went on to become the general secretary of the Bihar State Youth Congress in 1975. After the Emergency was lifted in 1977, he joined the Janata Party and was elected to the Lok Sabha from Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh 1977. Yadav went on to serve as a Union minister in the Chandra Shekhar and H.D. Deve Gowda governments, holding portfolios such as Civil Aviation, Labour, and Surface Transport. He was also a member of the Rajya Sabha from Bihar for three terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yadav played a key role in the implementation of the Mandal Commission report, which recommended 27% reservation for OBCs in government jobs and educational institutions. The report was implemented by the V.P.
