MLC Kavitha Has No Moral Right To Speak on Dalit Issues: Congress

Hyderabad: Congress senior leader Mohammed Ali Shabbir said that BRS MLC Kavitha has no moral right to speak on Dalit issues as her father and Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao has betrayed the SCs on the promise of making a Dalit CM.

Reacting to the allegations leveled by MLC Kavitha in Kamareddy against the Congress party’s SC, ST Declaration, Shabbir Ali on Monday asked the Chief Minister’s daughter to question her father (CM KCR) for his failed promises made with Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. “Will Kavitha admit that her father KCR deceived the SCs on the promise of a Dalit CM? What happened to the promise of providing 3 acres of land for poor Dalit and Girijan families?” he asked.

Shabbir Ali said that MLC Kavitha or any other BRS leader has no moral right to question the Congress party’s sincerity towards the SCs and STs. He pointed out that the previous Congress regime had a Dalit Deputy Chief Minister Damodar Rajanarasimha. “While KCR promised to make a Dalit CM, he could not digest a Dalit Deputy CM Dr T Rajaiah,” he said while reminding how Rajaiah was removed from the post unceremoniously. “This time Rajaiah was not even given a ticket to contest Assembly elections. It was heartbreaking to watch an elderly man cry like a child after he was denied a ticket. KCR apparently enjoys ruining the political careers of Dalit, Tribal, and minority leaders,” he said.

He said that the Congress party always delivered on its promises. He pointed out that the previous Congress regime introduced a Sub-Plan for SCs and STs to ensure 100% utilization of the allocated budget for their welfare. However, he said it was the KCR Government that diverted the SC ST Sub-Plan funds for other purposes. He also dismissed Kavitha’s allegation of non-implementation of promises in Karnataka by the Congress Govt and challenged the BRS MLC and other leaders for a visit to Bengaluru to check the ground reality or for an open debate on this issue.
