Is Telangana formation in the interest of minorities or can the minorities play a role of king-maker in Rayal Telangana? The debate continues on this matter among politicians and general public in view of the activities continued in the process of state bifurcation. Initially Congress leaders felt that it would be beneficial for minorities to get their rights after the formation of Telangana comprising of 10 districts. And they will have a key role in Telangana government but now that Congress high command has proposed Rayal Telangana, leaders have to say that Reddys and Muslims will have their dominance over Rayal Telangana. In Telangana there was a strong possibility that BC community will have influence over the government but with the proposal of Rayal Telangana once again the possibilities of dominance of Reddy community have increased. BCs are worried over Rayal Telangana proposal as the Reddy community’s dominance will continue to remain over the leadership.
As far as minorities are concerned they can be the king-makers in both the cases. Some leaders are of the view that minorities’ position will be stronger in Rayal Telangana as Kurnool and Anantapur both have a substantial Muslim population. Political analysts think that since Muslim minorities have been close to Reddy community compared to BCs, both Reddys and minorities can have dominance over the new state.
