Karnataka Home Minister and senior Congress leader G Parameshwara on Monday lambasted the NDA government for the perceived exclusion of MPs from backward classes and Dalit communities in the state from the union council of Ministers.

Parameshwara stressed that the omission of these communities in government formation signals a clear neglect. Despite several elected representatives from these communities within the state, they were not chosen, raising questions about the inclusivity of the process.

Of the five Karnataka MPs inducted into the Modi-led NDA government, none are from the backward classes or Dalit communities, which Parameshwara finds disheartening. Congratulating the new ministers, he warned that unresolved state issues like GST shares and irrigation projects must be addressed swiftly.
