Brahmin body demands representation for community in GVMC elections

The Brahmin Welfare Society in Visakhapatnam has voiced its discontent with political parties, especially the NDA, for failing to allocate a fair number of corporator seats to the Brahmin community in the upcoming GVMC elections. Despite the Brahmin community boasting over two lakh votes, they have been overlooked by all political parties, and unreserved wards are being handed out to reserved communities, according to the Society's president K. Charan Kumar.

In a statement released on Saturday, Kumar highlighted the Brahmin community's rich history of political leaders like Tenneti Viswanadham, Battam Sriram Murthy, Dronamraju Satyanarayana, D.V. Subba Rao, and Dronamraju Srinivasa Rao, who are remembered for their integrity and exemplary conduct in politics. He urged all parties, including the YSRCP, to not overlook the Brahmin community in the electoral process.
