HYDERABAD: The Telangana state assembly on Tuesday adopted the report of Justice Shamim Akhtar, the one-member commission on the categorization of Scheduled Castes into three sub-categories, seeking to extend the benefits of reservations to them in proportionate to the percentage of their population.
Tabling the report in the state assembly, Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy said the government has accepted all the recommendations of the Justice Akhtar Commission, except the one to exclude the creamy layer among the SCs from benefiting from reservations.
"Today is the most memorable day in my life, as the Congress government has fulfilled two of its major promises — conducting the caste survey and categorization of SCs," he said.
