BRS MLC in Telangana K Kavitha, on Saturday, 17 February, alleged that the Congress government in the state is not sincere in conducting the caste survey as it passed only a resolution in the Legislative Assembly without ensuring statutory backing.

The resolution passed by the Legislative Assembly on Friday to take up a caste survey gives false hope to the backward classes, she added.

‘Legislation on caste survey needed’

“Does the government not know that the survey would not stand legal scrutiny without statutory backing?” Kavitha, daughter of former chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao, said on X.

కులగణన తీర్మానం బీసీలను మభ్య పెట్టే చర్య. కాంగ్రెస్ ప్రభుత్వానికి కులగణన పట్ల చిత్తశుద్ధి లేదని తేటతెల్లమైంది. అసెంబ్లీలో తీర్మానం చేసి చేతులు దులుపుకోవాలని కాంగ్రెస్ ప్రభుత్వం ప్రయత్నిస్తోంది.
కులగణనకు చట్టబద్ధత ఏదీ ? చట్టబద్ధత లేకుండా న్యాయపరంగా నిలవలేదని ప్రభుత్వానికి తెలియదా…

Questioning as to why the state government is not taking into consideration the experiences of Bihar and Karnataka, she demanded that a legislation be made on the caste survey immediately.

When asked by reporters on the buzz about an alliance between the BJP and BRS for the Lok Sabha polls, she said that the matter is beyond her understanding or capacity and that she does not have awareness about it.

The Telangana Legislative Assembly on Friday passed a resolution to take up a comprehensive door-to-door household caste survey in the state so as to plan and implement various plans for the progress of the Backward Classes, SC and ST citizens, and other weaker sections.
