National and State Leaders Unite for 42% BC Reservation Bill
Hyderabad | August 31, 2025
The demand for implementing 42% reservations for Backward Classes (BCs) in private educational institutions and employment received a major boost at the BC Mahasabha, which brought together top national and state leaders, along with hundreds of community representatives.
The meeting, conducted by Nandagopal and Gujja Krishna, turned into a strong call for social justice, with unanimous voices urging the government to immediately bring the 42% BC Reservation Bill into effect. Key National Leaders Speak Out:
R. Krishnaiah, MP & National BC Welfare Association President
“The 42% reservation Bill is not just a demand but a constitutional right. Lakhs of BC students are being forced to discontinue education due to non-implementation. The government must act immediately.”
Bandaru Dattatreya, Former Governor
“Education and employment are powerful equalizers. Denying BCs their rightful share means denying equality. The government should pass this Bill without further delay.”
Madhusudhana Chary, Former Speaker
“This is an issue beyond party politics. Justice for BCs should be the priority of every government. The 42% reservation in the private sector must be implemented without hesitation.”
CPI Senior Leader Narayana
“The corporate sector grows with the contribution of common people but denies their children equal opportunities. This Bill is revolutionary and essential to correct historic injustices. CPI will extend full support.”
State Leaders Participation:
Neelam Venkatesh recalled the relentless struggles of R. Krishnaiah over the last five decades, saying it is only because of his tireless fight that the slogan of BC Reservation has become a powerful voice today. He reminded that Krishnaiah has consistently stood by BC students, fought for their education, employment, and rights, and inspired generations of leaders. Without his sacrifices and unwavering vision, the BC movement would never have reached this level of unity and recognition.
Prominent state leaders including BC leader ,Shashank Pasupuleti, Narayana, Sravani, , barath goud and several others actively participated in the discussions, strongly backing the Bill and urging the government to ensure fee reimbursement arrears are cleared without delay.
Unanimous Resolution:
The meeting concluded with a joint resolution demanding the immediate implementation of 42% BC reservations in private institutions, full clearance of ₹14,000 crore fee reimbursement dues, reservation in private universities, and strengthened support systems for BC students.
The leaders warned the Congress government that if these promises are not fulfilled soon, the BC community will launch state-wide agitations to fight for their rightful share.
