Call for transparency in Telangana's BC reservation proposal

Former Telangana BC Commission chairman Vakulabharanam Krishna Mohan Rao has called for transparency regarding the proposed 42% reservations for backward classes (BCs). He urged the state government to publish the Justice Sudarshan Reddy committee report before the assembly vote on March 17. Krishna Mohan Rao emphasized the need for legal clarity and proper analysis of caste survey data. He stated that introducing the BC bills without addressing these issues could lead to legal challenges and administrative problems. The Telangana government has formed a committee led by Justice Sudarshan Reddy to study the caste survey. Krishna Mohan Rao expressed concerns that the committee's report was incomplete and not fully disclosed, which could affect the accuracy of the proposed reservations.
