‘Govt will correct errors’
Transport and BC Welfare Minister Ponnam Prabhakar said the government will correct mistakes in the caste census report if nay in a responsible manner.
Addressing the media at the Gandhi Bhavan on Wednesday, Ponnam said that opposition parties had tried to sabotage the caste census.
The BRS had expelled Eatala Rajender when he asked about rights. Why did the BRS expel BC leader Eatala, Ponnam asked.
Does any BRS leader have the guts to ask why one leader is holding three key posts in the BRS, Ponnam asked.
On what moral basis does the BRS question the caste census, he asked.
Ponnam asked opposition leaders to explain the mistakes they had found in the caste census. He said that a roadmap was prepared for weaker sections. “People should not fall into the trap of conspirators. We will correct mistakes if any,” he said.
Ponnam asked the BRS to explain what they had done for BCs in the last 10 years. The Congress government is ready for a debate, he said, making it clear that the government will fulfil its assurances given in the Kamareddy Declaration.
