'Give inner reservation to Madigas'
Sira, Jan 16, DHNS

''It is a matter delight that efforts of Mandiga Dandora to develop
the community is fetching results,'' expressed Mandiga Dandora State
President Pavagad Sriram. He was speaking after inaugurating a Madiga
Dandora village unit at Kumbarahalli in the Gowdagere hobli in the
Sira taluk.


The Madiga Dandora will soon protest against the Sadashiva Commission
which from the past 4 years has not bothered to conduct census of
castes coming under Schedule Caste. He urged people belonging to the
community to identify themselves as Madigas and to fight over their
rights.

Markandeya swamiji who spoke on the occasion said that Madiga as a
caste had a history of 5,000 years and since then the people of the
caste were oppressed socially, politically and economically. He said
that government should immediately implement inner reservation for
Madigas in the existing reservation policy.

Madiga Dandora working secretary M V Raghavendraswamy, General
Secretary Narasimhalu, district president J S Manjunath, Kemparaju,
Paramesh, Guruswamaiah, Lakshmidevi and others were present on the
occasion.
