Agency DSC Sadhana Committee to meet Tribal Welfare official on May 1
The leaders and members of the Agency DSC Sadhana Committee will meet Tribal Welfare Principal Secretary M.M. Nayak at the ITDA Rampachodavaram office on May 1, the committee coordinator P. Appala Narasa said here on Wednesday. The committee will take its final decision on their scheduled Manyam Bandh on May 2 based on the outcome of the meeting with Mr. Nayak on May 1, he added. Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu announced the DSC as his birthday gift on April 20, but he forgot about the special DSC that would benefit the tribals in the five ITDAs in the State with 100% percent reservation for the tribals, Mr. Narasa added. During the World Tribal Day celebrations held in Araku in Alluri Sitharama Raju district on August 9, 2024, Mr. Naidu had promised to announce the special DSC for the tribals, but he forgot his promises, Mr. Appala Narasa said. 'At least 10,000 tribal youth across the State are waiting for a special DSC, but the government is not thinking seriously about their sufferings. If the government fails to address the demand of the tribals, then this mega DSC in the State has no meaning. We will make our demand a serious issue in the State with the Manyam Bandh to be held in all the tribal mandals of the five ITDA limitson May 2,' said Mr. Appala Narasa. He added that the Sadhana Committee of ASR district staged a protest on Wednesday.
