Call for OBC Unity Beyond Political Lines: Leaders Unveil National Mahasabha Poster


Hyderabad (Same Day): Prominent political leaders from various parties came together to call for unity among the Other Backward Classes (OBCs), cutting across political affiliations. The appeal was made during the unveiling of the poster for the upcoming 10th National OBC Mahasabha, scheduled to be held on August 7 in Goa.

The event, held in Hyderabad under the leadership of Jajula Srinivas Goud, National President of the BC Welfare Association, witnessed the participation of BJP MP and former minister Etela Rajender, AIMIM president, Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi and BRS Rajya Sabha MP Vaddiraju Ravichandra. Leaders emphasized the need for a united OBC movement to demand equitable representation and rights in proportion to their population.

Mr. Etela Rajender noted, "Better days lie ahead for the OBC communities. There is a strong need to move beyond political divisions and work collectively to reclaim our rightful share in all sectors." Mr. Owaisi echoed similar sentiments, stating that political unity among backward communities was essential to achieving lasting change.

As part of the mobilisation efforts, invitation letters for the Mahasabha were personally handed over to Mr. Rajender at his residence, Mr. Owaisi at Darussalam, and Mr. Ravichandra at his home. The leaders expressed their commitment to attend the Goa event and encouraged large-scale participation from across the country.

Mr. Jajula Srinivas Goud stated that the National Mahasabha, to be held at Dr. Shyam Prasad Mukherjee Stadium in Goa, aims to demonstrate the collective strength and resolve of OBC communities across India.

Several community representatives and youth leaders, including Kundaram Ganesh Chari (Chairman, BC JAC), Chinna Srisailam Yadav (Chairman, Jyotiba Phule Jayanti Celebrations Committee), Tatikonda Vikram Goud (President, BC Students’ Association), and Kanakala Shyam Kuruma (President, BC Youth Association), were present.

The organisers said the event would be a platform to demand increased political, social, and economic representation for OBCs, and hoped it would mark a turning point in the ongoing movement for backward class empowerment.

Patients Forced to Buy Medicines, Carry Bottles at Unani Hospital Charminar: Lubna Sarwat Raise Alarm

Hyderabad (Same Day): Patients visiting the Government Unani Hospital in Charminar are reportedly being compelled to purchase a majority of their prescribed medicines from private pharmacies, with activists claiming that over 60% of essential Unani medicines are unavailable at the facility. Adding to the woes, patients are also being asked to bring their own empty bottles to collect traditional halwa-based medicines—a practice described as both inconvenient and degrading by social activists and patient families. Dr. Lubna Sarwath, social and environmental activist and member of the Indian National Congress (INC), has formally raised the grievance with the Hyderabad District Collector on Wednesday, demanding immediate redressal. “This is a public hospital meant to serve the underprivileged.
