BJP State president Daggubati Purandeswari has assured a delegation of the Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi (MRPS), which met her at the party office here on Saturday, that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would keep his promise to provide sub-quota to their community within the Scheduled Castes (SCs).
Ms. Purandeswari told MRPS leader M. Nagaraju and others that Mr. Modi made certain promises for the socio-economic empowerment of the Madigas at the Viswaroopa Mahasabha held in Hyderabad last year, and that if he gave a commitment, he would not renege on it.
Therefore, the MRPS need not fear that they would be left in the lurch, she said, and that she would take the issues raised by the MRPS delegation to Home Minister Amit Shah’s notice.
