Chairman of Minorities Cell of Congress Mr. Mohammed Sirajuddin demanded TRS Govt. to implement 12% reservations for Muslims. The leaders of Minorities Cell staged dharna infront of Assembly. Police arrested them and shifted them to Goshamahal Police Station and released them later.
Mr. Sirajuddin blamed KCR that he is shedding crocodile tears for the Muslims and he is cheating them. By expressing false sympathy, he is trying to cover up his failures. He further told that TRS had promised 12% reservations for Muslims in its election manifesto but soon after assuming power, it forgot the election promise. By constituting an Enquiry Commission, an attempt has been made to cheat the Muslims. This commission has no legal authority. It has not been given any powers. He further told that KCR has announced to fill up 4 lakh Govt. jobs through Public Service Commission. If KCR has the genuine sympathy for the Muslims, he should implement 12% reservations in filling up these vacancies. He pointed out that Rs. 1027 were allotted for Minorities Welfare Department but 60% of this budget was not released at all. Govt. is dilly dallying the reimbursement of fees and scholarships to the students. He further demanded the Govt. of Telangana to fill up 20000 vacant post of Urdu medium teachers and lecturers in Telangana. The Govt. should constitute a separate DSC to fill up these posts. He demanded the Govt. to pay the salaries of Imams and Moazzins of the mosques from Wakf Board and also to implement 15 point program of the Prime Minister of India.
