MRPS bandh put off with a view to exams

Osmania University: Mandakrishna Madiga, MRPS founder—president, on Monday announced postponement of the bandh called by the samiti on March 13, demanding introduction of SC categorisation Bill in Parliament, in view of the ongoing examinations. 

Addressing a meeting on the OU campus, he said in view of the postponement dharnas should be organised near Ambedkar statues in the mandal and district centres across the State. 

While staging the dharna Mandakrishna stressed that care should be taken not to cause disruption of transport facilities in view of the ongoing examinations. While welcoming the TRS decision to give Rajya Sabha tickets to Banda Prakash and Lingayya Yadav, he accused all parties of doing injustice to girijans, who suffered because of lack of reservations in the RS elections. The MRPS leader called for debates on reservations in the RS and legislative councils.
