Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has said the government will fight for the implementation of 42 per cent reservation for Backward Classes in the state.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the media in Delhi on Thursday, Reddy said efforts are being made to pressure the Union government to secure the President\u2019s assent for the reservation bill.<\/p>\n

He mentioned that they would wait until the evening for an appointment with the President and expressed hope that she would take an independent decision. However, he added that if the President does not give time, it would have to be assumed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is putting pressure on her.<\/p>\n

Reddy explained that the state has explored all possible options to implement the 42 per cent BC reservations, and if the regular legal route fails, the government will consider alternative ways to conduct local body elections.<\/p>\n

Further, the chief minister said there are three possible ways for implementing the reservations.<\/p>\n

Reddy said: \u201cThe first option is to issue a Government Order (GO) by setting aside the previous government\u2019s law that imposed a 50 per cent ceiling on reservations. However, this could be challenged in court and potentially stayed, making it an unviable solution. The second option is to postpone local elections, but doing so would stop the flow of funds from the central government, which could severely affect village-level governance and infrastructure. The third and most practical option is for the party to allocate 42 per cent of its election tickets to BC candidates.”<\/p>\n

He also stated that efforts would be made to pressure other political parties to adopt the same approach.<\/p>\n
