BRS gave tickets to 22 BC candidates and Congress should give more, say BC leaders of party

As the Backward Classes (BCs) in Telangana Congress raise demand for a fair share in the allocation of tickets, the party is confident that it will accommodate more than what the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) has done.

The BRS has given seats to 22 BC candidates of the 119 seats in Telangana and the Congress leaders say they are confident that the party will cross that number at any cost. This is not only to stem the criticism from the BRS but also within the party.
