Congress on Wednesday said the Maharashtra government's decision to form a panel on issues of women in inter-faith and inter-caste marriages is a political agenda and a perfect example of how not to run a government.

The state government has set up a committee to gather information on the inter-faith and inter-caste marriage couples and maternal families of women involved if they are estranged. The panel head and state minister Mangal Prabhat Lodha said the move is aimed at avoiding a repeat of the Shraddha Walkar case.
