YSRCP, Left parties flay govt.’s ‘flawed approach’ to BC reservation issue
The YSRCP and left opposition parties have criticized the Andhra Pradesh government’s handling of the backward class reservation after a High Court ruling invalidated a 34% BC quota. They claim the administration failed to pursue a constitutional amendment, even though it was aware of legal obstacles to surpassing the 50% overall ceiling. This move has intensified debates over caste-based reservations.
