Big Bonanza For BC Leaders In YSRC!

Big Bonanza For BC Leaders In YSRC!

The decision of YSRCP president and CM Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy to create different welfare corporations for each of 56 different backward classes is considered to be yet another master stroke to win over the confidence of BCs.

The move not only gives a confidence among the BC communities, but also appeases a large number of YSRC leaders who have been waiting for the nominated posts for quite a long time.

Hitherto, only one leader used to get the chance to become the chairman of the BC Welfare Corporation and half-a-dozen other leaders used to become the directors of the corporation.

Now, it is going to be a big bonanza for the YSRC leaders. All the 56 corporations will have separate chairpersons and directors; so, a large number of party leaders will be given posts and positions.

The YSRC has been doing a lot of exercise in finalising the names of chairpersons and directors. Obviously, loyalty to the party for a long time is the criterion for selecting the party leaders for these nominated posts.

In fact, the names of chairpersons and directors for each corporation were supposed to be announced by a group of ministers on Wednesday, but the announcement was postponed due to last-minute changes in the list. It is now expected to be done on October 8.

In his typical style, Jagan has reserved more than 50 per cent of the posts to women. Out of 56 corporations, 29 corporations would be reserved for women representatives.

“Equal representation will be given to all the districts in nominating chairpersons as well as directors of the corporation,” he said.

Out of the total number of posts, Anantapur district will get 4 posts, Chittoor 4, East Godavari 4, Guntur 4, Kadapa 4, Krishna 5, Kurnool 4, Nellore 4, Prakasam 4, Srikakulam 6, Visakhapatnam 5, Vijayanagaram 4, West Godavari district 4 posts.

It is learnt that senior party leaders Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy, Venumbaka Vijayasaireddy, Mopidevi Venkataramana, YV Subba Reddy and Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy have been given the responsibility of finalizing the corporation posts. 

All of these leaders have been the observers for the respective districts. They examined the requests several times and exercised for about 20 days to finalize the names.
