Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy Announces Ordinance for SC Sub-Caste Reservations Following Supreme Court Ruling

Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy announced that the state will issue an ordinance if needed to implement reservations for sub-castes within the Scheduled Castes, following a Supreme Court ruling. The ruling, upheld by a seven-judge bench, supports classifying SCs into sub-groups for educational and employment reservations.

Reddy criticized the previous Bharata Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government for not representing the case effectively. The Congress government, elected in December 2023, successfully argued the case in the Supreme Court. BRS working president KT Rama Rao and Telugu Desam Party’s Nara Lokesh welcomed the ruling, while the BJP has refrained from commenting.
