Nueva Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata (BJP) match on Saturday criticized Télangana CM Revanth Reddy for his comment on the caste of Prime Minister Modi.
The Telangana Prime Minister had affirmed that Prime Minister Modi did not belong to the back classes at the time he was born, that the BJP criticized by calling him an “irresponsible” comment.
Coal Union Minister G Kishan Reddy attacked Reddy’s comments, saying that the CM “should make statements based on facts.”
“How can he (Revanth Reddy) speak so irresponsibly? If you make a statement, it should be based on facts,” said Kishan Reddy, who is also the president of the BJP Telangana to the PTI news agency.
Revanth Reddy, speaking at an event of the Congress on Friday, also accused Prime Minister Modi of being “mentality anti-resle. The CM said that Modi’s caste was classified as a “front caste” before becoming a main minister of Gujarat.
Replicating the statement of the CM, G Kishan Reddy said that the BJP has taken several measures for the well -being of the back classes. He said the BC commission received a constitutional status after Modi became prime minister, not during the previous regimes of the Congress.
The CM was talking after a PowerPoint presentation at the government caste survey and the SC categorization exercise in the state.
Revanth said that the BJP was trying to portray the Congress Government Survey in Telangana as defective as otherwise, the Modi government would be under pressure to carry it out throughout the country and also modify the Constitution to improve reserves of BC.
He also asked how BRS and BJP could say that the survey statistics were wrong when there was no official statistics available before the Congress survey.
“We did the survey scientifically and 96.9 percent of the population in Telangana gave voluntarily details. The survey forms were filled or signed by the family member who gave details. Now, we have started a second survey round to give a opportunity at the remaining 3.1 percent, “said Revanth.
“It does not matter, even if I end as the last prime minister of the Reddy community. As a disciplined worker of the party and CM, I took the caste survey to maintain the promise given by our leader Rahul Gandhi. This is my commitment. To the campaigns Opposition, they will lose forever, “said the CM.
