Hyderabad, Nov 26: PCC Chief Mahesh Kumar Goud said the Congress government made every effort to secure BC Reservations 42 Percent under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy.
Mahesh Kumar Goud said the party never slowed its push on this major issue. He noted that the government followed High Court orders while holding Panchayat polls.
Mahesh Kumar Goud stressed that the state had no other option at that stage.
BC Reservations 42 Percent Debate Draws Strong Reactions
Mahesh Kumar Goud said the government passed two bills to support the rise in the BC quota.
Yet he noted that the Governor did not give approval. He added that the state later sent an ordinance.
But he said the Governor kept that move pending as well. He said these delays blocked the state plan to give clear benefits to BC groups.
Mahesh Kumar Goud said the Centre created many hurdles. He said the BJP government stopped every step taken by the Congress team.
Mahesh Kumar Goud called these actions unfair. He said the state wanted only fair social balance.
Mahesh Kumar noted that these steps aimed to support all backward groups. He added that this process needed support at every level.
Mahesh Kumar said some BC groups feared that the BC Reservations 42 Percent plan may get stuck. But he said those doubts had no base.
Mahesh Kumar Goud said the Congress government acted with full clarity.
Mahesh Kumar also said the work done by the team proved the intent. He noted that field teams saw strong support for these steps in all districts.
He said about 90 percent of sarpanch seats may go to Congress backed leaders. He said local teams worked hard to build trust. He added that the Congress unit showed clear plans for village works. He said these plans drew strong support from voters. He noted that better services at ground level helped the party gain pace.
He said the state held the caste survey to support the rise in quota.
Mahesh said this survey showed BC groups at 56.7 percent of the state population. He said this number proved the need for a higher quota.
Goud noted that the government will push ahead until it completes the full process. He said the Congress leadership will keep its promise.
Goud added that the party wants fair space for all groups. ( Maxim news )
