Government of India has been in receipt of representations from State Governments including andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka for sub-categorization of SCs, including the madiga community, on the grounds that the benefits of reservation and welfare/developmental schemes meant for Scheduled Castes are not percolating evenly among the Scheduled Caste communities.

Keeping in view of the above, a Committee of Secretaries has been constituted under the Chairpersonship of Cabinet Secretary to examine the administrative steps that can be taken to safeguard the interests of the Madiga and other similarly placed communities.
