The State government on Sunday announced the list of chairpersons for 56 BC corporations which have been set up for the uplift of the Backward Classes (BCs). Of them, 29 corporations are going to be led by women and 12 directors have been appointed for each corporation representing all the 13 districts. Addressing the media, Minister for BC Welfare Ch. Venugopala Krishna said that the government was committed to the development of BCs and Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy took the initiative of setting up 56 BC corporations to focus on their empowerment.
“Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy stood by his promise of setting up one corporation for every BC community . After a careful study, out of 138 castes, 56 castes with more than 30,000 population were finalised to have separate corporations. Funds will be provided to them in the due course,” said the Minister.
Minister for Municipal Administration Botcha Satyanarayana said the establishment of these corporations was the first-of-its- kind initiative in any State and slammed the TDP leaders for raking up controversies over it.
