Upper Castes Using Telangana for Political interests :MIM

Majlis e Ittehadul Muslimeen Party Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi Givng Speech

HYDERABAD : Majlis-Ittehadul- Muslimeen (MIM) MP from Hyderabad Asaduddin Owaisi has charged the influential upper castes with using the Telangana issue as an election affair to further their own political interests.

Speaking to newsmen at Karimnagar on Sunday, he alleged that the weaker sections comprising Backward Classes (BCs), Scheduled Classes Scheduled Tribes and minorities lost their voice in the "selfish politics" being pursued by three dominant upper castes (Velama, Reddy and Kamma) in the State.

The Telangana Praja Samiti merged in the Congress after winning about 10 MP seats on Telangana plank in the 70s, he noted. In an indirect reference to M. Satyanarayana Rao, the MIM MP said, "The present Karimnagar MLA won on the samiti ticket at that time. Of late, he is talking in a different language.".

"The weaker sections have no trust in the leadership of the upper castes. Telangana can be formed only if the weaker sections come into the forefront", he said. The Uttar Pradesh and Bihar experiments should be replicated here to ensure political empowerment of the weaker sections in the real sense, he suggested. The Telangana Rashtra Samiti has failed to give even a single ticket to the Muslims in the last Assembly elections, he pointed out.

"The Telugu Desam disturbed the political equilibrium in Telangana by giving tickets to people from other regions in Telangana in the past, Owaisi alleged.

Comparing West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb with Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, the MIM leader alleged that Buddhadeb justified the heinous atrocities committed by the CPM activists on the hapless Muslim women and the dalits in Nandigram.
