After the passage of a resolution in the Telangana Legislative Assembly to conduct a comprehensive household caste survey, BRS MLC K Kavitha criticized the Congress-led government's approach, labeling it as insincere and inadequate for the needs of the OBC section of the state. On Friday, the resolution, proposed by Backward Classes Welfare Minister Ponnam Prabhakar, was passed after deliberations in the Assembly. However, Kavitha expressed dissatisfaction with the government's decision to present a resolution instead of a bill.

According to ANI, BRS MLC K Kavitha on the resolution of the caste survey in Telangana Assembly said, "Current Telangana government led by the Congress party has made the most insincere effort yesterday in the assembly by placing a resolution, whereas they should have been bringing a bill instead."

"Every party on the floor of the assembly had committed that if a bill was brought, we would support it to this extent. Yet the government chose to place a resolution. This shows the insincerity of the government towards the OBC section of the state," she said.
