Hyderabad: Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy reaffirmed the Congress party's support for the categorisation of Scheduled Castes (SCs) during his speech as the chief guest at the Global Madiga Day-2024 programme held in Hyderabad on Saturday. He referenced the "Chevella Declaration" by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, which clearly stated the party's position on this issue.
Reddy highlighted his government's pivotal role in advocating for SC categorisation in the Supreme Court. He announced that the Shameem Akhtar Commission's report on SC categorisation is expected to be released in the coming days, and assured that the government would proceed with categorisation without causing any difficulties to the community.
He emphasised the priority given to the Madiga community both administratively and politically, noting that for the first time, the Vice Chancellor of Osmania University hails from the Madiga caste.
