Hyderabad: TPCC chief Mahesh Kumar Goud urged BC youth to stay calm on the BC quota issue and avoid extreme steps. He visited the home of Sai Eshwara Chari in Amberpet and offered tributes to the young man. Chari died while seeking BC reservations, and the incident created deep unrest among several community groups. According to Goud, the Congress placed social justice at the heart of its work and remained firm on securing 42 per cent reservations.
The party, he said, would continue its campaign until the quota became a reality. Because of this sustained effort, he appealed to BC youth to avoid rash decisions that could cause further harm. Chari’s death struck him as heartbreaking, and he asked protesters to maintain restraint during the ongoing agitation.
Congress intensifies efforts as BC quota issue gains focus
Goud expressed confidence that the Congress would form the next government at the Centre. Rahul Gandhi, he said, was poised to become Prime Minister. Under a Congress-led government, BC reservations would receive constitutional backing similar to safeguards for SC and ST groups. Support for Chari’s family would come from the state, and he promised assistance in every required form.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and state ministers, he noted, continued to work on the quota demand. Goud accused the Centre of setting aside BC bills passed by the state legislature. A Congress delegation, he added, would soon meet the Prime Minister to press for 42 per cent reservations.
