BJP resents KCR reiterating 12% quota for Muslims
Hyderabad, Jan.19 : Telangana State BJP official spokesperson Krishna Saagar Rao today stated Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao reiterating that his government would provide for 12% reservation to Muslims was not just a blatant lie, but also unconstitutional and uncouth minority vote-bank politics.
In a statement here on Thursday, Krishna Saagar Rao stated, “BJP strongly disapproves this open and shameless pandering for Muslim votes by Chief Minister KCR being in a constitutional position. Knowing very well that the reservations limit set by the Supreme Court cannot be violated and the Apex court had given very clear orders against religion-based reservations. Yet CM KCR was still making this kind of deviant statements”.
“His designs only expose his pro-Muslim, anti-Hindu, anti-BC/SC/ST mindset. As any increased reservation has to be drawn from the quota assigned to BC, SC and STs, the BJP considers this as an unforgivable misadventure negatively affecting the economically backward classes in pursuit of public pandering for Muslim votes. BJP believes 100% that CM KCR cannot deliver on this illegal, unconstitutional and uncouth false promise of 12% reservation to Muslims”, he added.
