Leader of Opposition in the TSLC Mohammed Ali Shabbir today said that lack of sincerity and Political will of the TRS Government for promoting Minority & ST reservation has been exposed in the parliament once again.
Mohammed Ali Shabbir along with Former Union Minister Balram Naik, addressed to press at Gandhi Bhavan Today. Shabbir Ali said that TRS slogan of One Country One Reservation and stalling the proceeding of Parliament is rubbish and cheating the people of Telangana on the name of Reservation.
He also said that KCR and his Govt. is acting on the direction of Modi and Amit Shah and playing the game on behalf of BJP to avoid the no confidence motion at Parliament along with AIDMK, which is nothing but making Telangana people in dark.
Shabbir Ali commented that the reservation Bill meant for increase of reservation to minorities from 4% to 12% and reservation to ST’s from 6% to 10% was passed in Telangana Assembly & Council in the Month of April – 2017. Instead of implementing the reservation KCR send the Bill to the Central Govt. for the approval of the reservation which is the delaying tactics of TRS Govt., and no sincerity in implementation of reservation.
Shabbir Ali demanded the TRS Govt. to reveal the truth about the correspondence taken place between Govt. of India and state Govt. The letters received from the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions Department of Personnel & Training Establishment section was shown as the evidence that the State Govt. is failed to respond clarification sought by the GOI in spite of 4-reminders and last reminder dated : 01-March-2018 was received by the Telangana Govt.
He also said the TRS to cover up their failures they are agitating in Parliament and knowingly that during this Assembly Session Congress is going to corner the TRS Govt. on these issues, they deliberately suspended Congress Legislatures till the end of Session.
If the TRS is sincere in implementing the reservation the slogan of One Country and One Reservation is practically impossible as a every state implementing reservation to the different communities as per the local demand. If at all it has to be implement the majority states have to agree and the amendment to the constitution is very much necessary.
While high lighting the reservation issues in Telangana lambadas are under ST whereas in Maharashtra they are under BC. Similarly mudhiraj Community demanding to change the reservation category from BC-D to BC-A. and Vaddera and Fisherman Community demanding to include in ST Category.
Shabbir said if TRS is sincere let them start implementing the reservation and provide reservation in employment and education from the academic year 2018-19.
The TRS Govt. behaving with double standard as at the time of One Country and One Tax they are oppose to include Petrol and Diesel under GST as the state revenue may reduce. He said.
Balram Naik, Former Union Minister, said TRS cheating the Minorities and ST’s knowingly that ST population is only 9.08% in the state and Govt. recommended for 10%. Similarly BC Commission recommended 10% Reservation to Minorities where as TRS Govt. announced the 12% Reservation knowingly that these is not going to be implemented. He demanded let TRS Govt. implement this reservation in TSPSC, ITDA, and other Govt. agencies then demand for approval by GOI.
TPCC Chief Spokesperson D Shrawan was also presented during the Press Conference.
