Kapu Nadu district president and Kapu Joint Action Committee (JAC) convener Thota Rajeev has alleged that BJP leader and Rajya Sabha member G.V.L. Narasimha Rao is trying to creating a rift among Kapus by ignoring prominent Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham and Kapu JAC leaders in his talks on the BC reservation issue.
The BJP Rajya Sabha member held talks on the issue with some BJP leaders, who represent the JAC but had never participated in the struggle for regaining the lost BC status of Kapus, while ignoring prominent leaders from the Kapu community like BJP State president Somu Veerraju and former president Kanna Lakshminarayana, Mr. Rajeev told a media conference here on Monday.
Condemning the attitude of Mr. Narasimha Rao towards the community, the JAC leader demanded that the Kapu community, which was deleted from the BC list in an unscientific manner in the past, be re-included in the list. He said that attempts by the BJP leader to divide the Kapus for political mileage, would be met with united struggles.
