CM Reddy Calls Out Political Conspiracy Over Caste Survey Data

Telangana's CM A Revanth Reddy accused BRS and BJP of critiquing the state's caste survey to obstruct increased power for backward classes. He urged Congress to pass a resolution advocating for greater BC reservations, challenging inaccuracies in the survey data and appealing for public support.

Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has raised allegations against the BRS and BJP, accusing them of disputing the data from the state's caste survey to prevent backward classes from gaining a larger share of power.

During a meeting with the All India Padmashali Mahasabha, Reddy stated that a resolution by the Congress government to increase BC reservations to 42% in the Assembly would exert pressure on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Reddy pointed out that before the 2023 Assembly elections, Congress promised to expand BC reservations in local bodies from 23% to 42%, challenging BRS and BJP to substantiate claims of inaccuracies in the survey data.
