Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that the Centre will soon form committee to address Madiga community’s demand for sub-categorisation of scheduled castes.
The Prime Minister was speaking at a rally organised in Secunderabad, Telangana by the Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi (MRPS), a community organisation of Madigas, one of the biggest constituents of Scheduled Castes in Telugu states, which fights for the categorisation of SCs.
PM Modi said that the BJP stood with Madiga community in every struggle since the last three decades. He said, in these 10 years, the Telangana government has only betrayed everyone including Madiga community.
Congress put hurdles when Telangana was about to be formed but when, after so many sacrifices Telangana was formed, BRS leaders forgot you people and went and thanked Congress leaders.
Prime Minister also took a swipe at the previous governments of Telangana and undivided Andhra Pradesh, which failed to consider the rights of the Madiga community.
PM Modi said that his government's highest priority is to give preference to those who are deprived. BJP's mantra is Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas.
Prime Minister also lauded Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi leader Manda Krishna Madiga and said that the leader can consider him a friend who will help the Madiga community in their struggle.
Prior to PM Modi's speech, Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi leader Manda Krishna Madiga who shared the stage with the PM got emotional on the stage in Hyderabad.
Reservation Porata Samithi, a community organisation of Madigas, is one of the biggest constituents of scheduled castes in Telugu states.
