HYDERABAD: State government must set up an SC and ST commission immediately and release special component fund for the improvement of their living standards, or they would launch agitations across the state, warned Karem Sivagi, president of Mala Mahanadu.Speaking at a press conference here on Sunday, he said the state government has failed to fill up the 6,384 backlog posts for the past five years. “Dalits and adivasis were ignored by the government by not sanctioning sufficient funds. Particularly members of the Mala community were not given any important posts in the government sector as there is stiff opposition the Madiga community,” he alleged.He announced that the Mala Mahanadu had called for ‘Chalo Hyderabad’ programme and a state level meeting on August 11 at Ambedkar Bhavan, Lower Tank Bund. There would be two sessions in the meeting and then a rally from Ambedkar Bahavan to Indira Park.
