Addressing a state convention of the Rajaka community, BCIF Chairman T. Chiranjeevulu (Retd. IAS) called on community members to dismantle feelings of political inferiority and assert their rightful democratic share. Citing recent government survey data showing a population of nearly 10 lakh Rajakas in Telangana, he demanded proportional legislative representation, special constitutional protections, and targeted economic allocations.
- During a community assembly organized in Hyderabad, retired IAS officer and BC Intellectuals Forum Chairman T. Chiranjeevulu advocated for targeted educational, administrative, and political mobilization across backward classes, focusing on the Rajaka community. Referencing state survey metrics that record the community's population at approximately 10 lakhs (2.8% of Telangana's total population), he highlighted the disparity where proportional representation would yield 4 to 5 MLAs, yet representation has historically remained near zero.
Invoking the legacy of revolutionary Telangana Armed Struggle icon Chakali Ailamma, Chiranjeevulu underscored that significant historical sacrifices have rarely translated into policy influence for marginalized communities. He called for establishing educational endowment funds to support civil services and professional aspirants, pursuing SC/Dalit classification parity with 16 other Indian states, and securing dedicated budgetary outlays for the Rajaka Welfare Corporation to foster long-term socio-economic self-sufficiency.
