The Communist Party of India (Marxist) proposes to take out rallies all over the district on June 8 and 9 demanding reservations
in private sector. On June 10, the party is planning a massive demonstration at the district Collectorate, said district secretary S Vasudeva Reddy here on Thursday. He urged all political parties and peoples’ organisations to join and support the cause. The Chief Minister should take note of the demand and bring out suitable legislation providing reservations in private companies to dalits and BCs.
The party had been organising awareness programmes since May 10 across the district and also demanding implementation of BC sub plan. Mr Vasudeva Reddy alleged that the policies of State and Central governments have been designed to promote the corporate houses. Since there was no employment opportunity in government sector majority of educated youth were finding it difficult to get jobs. They were depending on private sector. The State and Central governments should act to provide reservations in private sector, Vasudeva Reddy and the CPI (M) state committee member Mettu Srinivas demanded. They said the children of as many as 35 BC communities don’t have access to school education. The leaders have released a poster related to the party agitation programme.
