Janasena chief Pawan Kalyan today announced his stand on Kapu reservations. He is currently touring West Godavari district and today he had a public meeting in Marteru. As usual, huge crowds attended his meeting today also. Amidst huge crowds, he spelled his stand on Kapu reservations and he announced that he is pro Kapu reservations and Janasena will try to ensure Kapu reservations are implemented without legal consequences by including it in 9th schedule of constitution.
However Pawan Kalyan took utmost care while speaking about Kapu reservations because his pro Kapu reservation stand may alienate other castes from him if he doesn’t deal with it properly and political opponents may try to lable him as Kapu leader. So, before talking about Kapu reservations, he spoke at length about women reservations in Legislative houses, about implementing Sachar committee recommendations on welfare of Muslims, about apprehensions of BCs on including Kapus in BCs, and about economically backward upper castes.
Pawan Kalyan told Janasena will strive for women reservations in legislative houses and the party will include this in their manifesto. He also told that Janasena will implement recommendations of Sachar committee. This committee has presented various suggestions on how to remove impediments those preventing Indian Muslims from fully participating in the social mainstream of Indian life. Pawan also announced that Janasena will form a corporation for the welfare of economically backward upper castes. Then he tried to allay apprehensions of BCs and told that Janasena party will further increase BC reservations as they are more populated than before. After speaking about all these, he spelled his stand of Kapu reservations. Meanwhile he alleged Chief Minister Chandra babu Naidu of dividing society based on caste. He also alleged Chandrababu is reason for the fights among Kapus and BCs, Valmikis and STs, Fishermen and STs.
Finally, Pawan told, Janasena will support Kapu reservations and his party will make sure no legal hurdles for implementing Kapu reservations by including the subject in 9th schedule of constitution.
