Cong MLAs seek statutory protection to sub-plans for SC/STs
PTI | 10:08 PM,Aug 03,2011

Hyderabad, Aug 3 (PTI) Congress MLAs belonging to Scheduled Caste and
Scheduled Tribe groups in Andhra Pradesh today sought statutory
protection to the sub-plans being implemented for the welfare of the
groups. "25 SC and ST MLAs have attended the meeting today. It was
felt that effective implementation of the SC sub-plan and ST sub-plan
is the solution to ensure the welfare of the SCs and STs. We want
legislative protection for that," state Primary Education Minister S
Sailajanath told reporters here. The SCs and STs would like to have
their share in "new economic resources like mining contracts,
industries and others," he said. The SC and ST MLAs felt that they
should mount pressure in pursuance of their demands, he said. The MLAs
would visit the birth places of legends from the backward classes like
B R Ambedkar, Babu Jagjivan Ram, Jyotirao Phule, and Komaram Bheem,
who fought against British in Telangana region, among others,
Sailajanath added. Assembly Deputy Speaker M Bhatti Vikramarka said
the objective is to ensure that the fruits of development reached all.
The sub-plans are being implemented since 1980 for the welfare of SCs
and STs.
