SC leader demands CBI inquiry against Manda Krishna

Baghlingampally: Madiga JAC founder and former SC Corporation chairman Dr Pidamarthi Ravi demanded a CBI enquiry on SC leader Mandha Krishna Madiga for his alleged corruption. He was speaking at a program to pay tributes to the Madiga martyrs who have sacrificed their lives in Madiga movement in the last 25 years.

Speaking on the occasion, Ravi alleged that accused the Madiga leaders of scuttling the SC categorization movement by not sending even a single person to legislature in the past 25 years of categorization movement. He demanded the state government to file criminal case against Mandha Krishna Madiga for instigating attacks and being responsible for several deaths of Madigas for his selfish interests.

He questioned how Krishna Madiga could join hands with the BJP which is anti-dalit and promotes religious fundamentalism. He demanded union minister of state for home affairs Kishan Reddy to promise to support SC categorization before he attends MRPS meeting at Eadumudi. He warned Kishan Reddy that Madigas would question him whenever he tours Telangana.

It is a matter of shame that the leaders who started the categorization movement were not invited to Eadumudi meeting, he said. Krishna Madiga's selfishness and dictatorial tendencies have distanced him from the categorization movement, Dr Ravi opined. Madiga JAC would not rest until SCs are categorized, Dr Ravi said. He urged Madigas to respond to the injustices being done to them.

TMRPS state president Yathakula Bhaskar, Ituka Raju Madiga, Madiga JAC student association state president Sunder Madiga, Jiva Madiga, Sheri Pogu Venkateshwarulu, Dandu Veerana Madiga, Maisa Upender and others participated in the program.
