The Telangana government is set to release a GO in the next two days, finalising 42% Backward Class (BC) reservations for local body elections. District-level preparations have been completed, with formal announcements and women’s reservations to follow soon.
RS leader V Srinivas Goud slammed the Congress for failing to implement promised 42 per cent BC reservations in local body polls. He accused the government of betrayal and demanded postponement of elections until the reservations are guaranteed, urging BCs to protest
The survey's claim that BCs account for 56.33 percent of the State's population, with 10.08 percent being BC Muslims, came under question for its discrepancies
During a meeting at her residence won Tuesday, Kavitha expressed outrage at the government's apathy toward BC issues. She stated that despite being in power for over a year, the Congress has not implemented a single promise made to the BC community during the elections
Accordingly, the Backward Classes Welfare Department issued orders setting up of the Telangana State Mudiraj Cooperative Societies Corporation Limited, Telangana State Yadava Kuruma Cooperative Societies Corporation Limited, Special Welfare Board for Economic Backward Classes.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi promising to make a BC leader Chief Minister if BJP was voted to power in Telangana, not a single major BC organisation had come forward to extend its support to the party.
The minister drew a sharp comparison between the governance models of Karnataka and Telangana, asserting that while Karnataka suffered under a "5 hours power failure model," Telangana thrived with a "24 hours power-full model."
