BJP workers were seen physically assaulting members of the Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi (MRPS) who were at the massive public meeting at Parade Ground in Hyderabad addressed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The MRPS members were reportedly holding up placards reminding PM Modi of his assurances to fulfil the demand for categorisation of Scheduled Castes, a long-held demand of the Madigas and other SC communities. The attack was condemned by several social media users. TRS leader M Krishank tweeted, “Strongly condemn this attack by BJP party workers at Parade Grounds on Dalits who were showing placards reminding Modi ji's promise of SC Categorisation.”Former IPS officer and Bahujan Samaj Party Telangana president RS Praveen Kumar responded to the incident, and tweeted, “I strongly condemn @BJP4Telangana beasts, who have become accustomed to carrying out lynchings with Narendra Modi as witness, assaulting MRPS activists who raised their voices for their rights. Why should we, the 90%, beg? Let's be rulers and rule this country. Don't be deceived by your leaders again. Open your eyes.
