MMRPS to agitate for SC classification

Special Correspondent

We will stage protests in front of the houses of Ministers, MPs, MLAs:
Devaiah Madiga

KADAPA: Maha Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi (MMRPS)
founder-president S. Devaiah Madiga asserted on Sunday that the
samithi would not only agitate for achieving micro-classification of
Scheduled Castes in the State, but would strive to ensure that the
fruits of developmental programmes and welfare schemes implemented by
the Central and State government reached Madigas and its sub-castes.

MMRPS committees would exert pressure on the Central and State
governments in a peaceful manner and stage protests in front of the
houses of Ministers, MPs and MLAs in pursuance of their demand, he
said. The problems confronting the Madiga community would remain
unresolved until micro-classification was achieved, he asserted at a
news conference here.

There was no rift between the Mala and Madiga Communities and they
developed on education, employment and political lines when the
previous government enacted a legislation classifying the SCs, he
stated. Development of Madiga community was hampered ever since the
micro-classification was disapproved by Supreme Court, he added. The
Central and State governments were apathetic in getting the
micro-classification restored since two years, despite concerted
agitations, Mr. Devaiah said.

Mr.. Devaiah Madiga oversaw the election of office-bearers for MMRPS'
Kadapa district unit and the district student wing. Chitti Sriramulu
Madiga was elected honorary president of Kadapa District MMRPS,
Ponnolu Subbarayudu as district president and G. Nagamuni as general
secretary. Others elected were G. Brahmaiah and B. Palakondaiah as
vice-presidents, S. Narasimhulu as joint secretary and G. Munaiah as
State vice-president.

S. Balu Madiga was elected president of Kadapa Maha Madiga Vidyarthi
Samakhya, M. Venkataramana as district general secretary, S. Gangadhar
as vice-president, S. Sriramulu as district secretary.
