BJP OBC Morcha staged a protest in front of the Hyderabad Collectorate on Tuesday. They demanded that the Congress-led State government implement its BC Declaration, which was released in Kamareddy before the State Assembly elections.
Anand Goud, the state president of BJP OBC Morcha, and treasurer Shanti Kumar led the protest. They criticized the Congress for not doing enough for the BCs in the budget for the financial year 2024-25.
The leaders accused the Congress of winning the State Assembly elections with false promises. They pointed out that Congress promised to increase BC reservations in local bodies from 23 to 42 percent but has not fulfilled this promise.
Additionally, the Congress promised to allocate Rs 20,000 crore annually to the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Sub-Plan, but this was not reflected in the proposed budget. They also failed to provide Rs 10 lakh unsecured and interest-free loans to BC youth for starting small businesses and higher education.
The OBC Morcha leaders warned that the BJP would intensify its fight until the Congress government fulfills its promises to the BCs. The protesters submitted a representation highlighting their demands.
