India Today  

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy on Tuesday called the classification of Scheduled Caste communities a "historic step" towards justice and upliftment. Speaking during the Budget session in the Assembly, he said “many activists have sacrificed their lives for SC classification, and the 'people's government' is committed to the upliftment of the SC communities.” He highlighted the Congress party’s long-standing commitment to Dalit empowerment, recalling that Damodaram Sanjeevaiah became Andhra Pradesh’s first Dalit Chief Minister in 1960 and Mallikarjun Kharge now leads the AICC. The Chief Minister also noted the government’s legal efforts, stating that after Congress assumed power in Telangana, the state argued the case for SC categorisation before a seven-judge bench in the Supreme Court. Reddy assured that SC reservations would be further enhanced based on the 2026 census and reaffirmed his government’s commitment to ensuring justice for the SC community.
