BJP Demands Separate ST Commission In Telangana

Hyderabad, Jan 16 (Maxim News): Former Minister and senior BJP leader D. Ravindra naik demanded the State government to constitute a separate Scheduled Tribes Commission for the tribals.

Addressing a press conference, here today, Ravindra Naik said the government should set up a separate ST Commission from the present SC & ST Commission, so that matters related to the tribe could be addressed by its own commission.
