The British managed to rule India by pitting the Hindus against the Muslims and the various princes against one another. They may have left but their policy of divide-and-rule is still being perpetuated by our politicians. Solely with the objective of gaining power, Chandrababu Naidu promised to include the Kapu community in the list of backward communities. 18 months after coming to power, he is yet to act on it and the Kapus are now demanding that Naidu fulfill his promise. They are justified in this because they promised by Naidu. But this is a really deplorable policy by Naidu.
Making use of castes and communities merely for attaining political power will create civil unrest and destroy the social fabric of the nation. There are many communities below the poverty line and who go bereft of reservation. But they probably do not appeal to Naidu because their numbers are not significant enough to put him in the CM’s chair. Why only the Kapu brothers and sisters? As the Chief Minister, is it not his responsibility to ensure the all-round development of the whole of Andhra Pradesh?
Had Hari Rama Jogiah, in his autobiography, not hinted at Naidu being behind the murder of Vangaveeti Ranga Rao, then Naidu would probably not have bothered at all about delivering on his promise. Now, the AP State BC, OBC Employees’ Association has asked the state government not to include the Kapus in the BC list as they feel that it is a conspiracy to deprive the existing BC’s of their rightful share. The Akhila Bharata Yadava Mahasabha too echoed the same view. Thus, Naidu’s election gimmicks have now resulted in pitting communities against one another in the name of caste.
Telugus fighting against Telugus while the likes of Naidu and KCR enjoy the privileges of power and enrich their own communities. Undoubtedly, they are two of the worst politicians, the Telugus have ever seen.
