Mareppa wants a State for SCs/ STs
Special Correspondent
HYDERABAD: Courting controversy yet again, Marketing Minister M. Mareppa on Wednesday advocated a separate State for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes and accused the Anti-Corruption Bureau with targeting low level weaker section employees leaving the big fish.
Addressing a press conference, Mr. Mareppa said a separate State was needed for these two oppressed sections in line with the ideologies of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and Mahatma Jythirao Phule to fulfil their aspirations. He called upon these sections to fight for such a State “as a final answer to all your woes” instead of quarrelling over categorisation issue.
“If you launch agitation with this demand, I will back and join you.”
He said while conducting raids and booking cases against SC/ST employees, the ACB was looking the other way when it involved higher officials, huge amounts and those belonging to other castes.
