Nomadic Muslims flag ‘serious flaws’ in BC-E population data: Shabbir

Image
Hyderabad (Same Day): Alleging major discrepancies in the Backward Classes (BC) population data released by the Telangana government, M.D. Shabbir, founder and State working president of the Telangana State Nomadic Muslim Tribes Association (BC-E 1–14), has accused authorities of significantly underreporting the population of nomadic Muslim communities. Speaking to reporters, Mr. Shabbir said the official figures were “far from reality,” particularly for several sub-groups within the BC-E category. He claimed that communities with substantial presence on the ground have been shown as having only a few hundred or a few thousand members in the government records. He cited multiple instances to support his claims. Communities such as Achchukattalavandlu, Singali and Singamvallu were reported to have a population of just 4,532, which, he argued, was lower than their numbers in a single mandal. Similarly, Fakir, Budbudaka Fakir and Darvesh groups were shown with a population of 46,349, whe...

Scorching Heat Puts Singareni Contract Workers at Risk; Union Seeks Shift Rescheduling

Image
Bhadradri Kothagudem (Same Day): With temperatures soaring beyond 42°C across coal mining regions, contract workers in the Singareni Collieries Company Limited are facing severe hardship, particularly in open-cast mines and other surface operations. Thousands of workers are reportedly struggling to cope with the extreme heat, describing conditions akin to working in a furnace. The situation has prompted the Progressive Singareni Contract Workers’ Union (TUCI) to demand immediate intervention from the management. R. Madhusudan Reddy, State Vice-President of the union, urged authorities to revise working hours in view of the rising temperatures. He cautioned that exposure to intense heat, especially during peak afternoon hours, could lead to heatstroke and other health complications. “Coal mine environments are significantly hotter than normal conditions. Requiring workers to continue operations under such extreme heat is unsafe,” he said, alleging that the management’s response to work...
