Blue India Party Rejects Telangana Caste Survey - Calls for Transparency and Accuracy

Hyderabad, Telangana - February 6, 2025 - The Blue India Party has officially rejected the findings of the recent Telangana Caste Survey, citing numerous discrepancies and concerns over the methodology and transparency of the data collection process.

Doubts Over Survey Integrity:

After thorough examination, the Blue India Party has identified several issues with the survey:

  • Transparency: The Blue India Party alleges that the process lacked transparency, with insufficient public access to the survey details and methodology.
  • Data Accuracy: There are significant concerns regarding the accuracy of the data, including reports of decreased population figures for certain castes in comparison to previous surveys, raising questions about the survey's validity.
  • Public Participation: The party points out that a considerable number of households did not participate in the survey, potentially skewing the results.

Statement from Blue India Party Leader:

"While we understand the importance of a caste census for ensuring equitable representation and welfare, the current survey does not meet the standards of accuracy and transparency required for such a critical exercise," stated Bongu Prasad Goud, the head of the Blue India Party. "We demand a re-evaluation of the survey process, ensuring greater involvement from all communities, and a transparent methodology that can withstand public scrutiny."

Call for Action:

The Blue India Party is calling for the following actions:

  • Re-conduct the Survey: A new, more rigorous and inclusive caste survey should be conducted with clear guidelines and open public participation.
  • Independent Oversight: An independent body should oversee the survey to ensure its impartiality and accuracy.
  • Public Consultation: Before any policy decisions are made based on this survey, there must be widespread consultation with all stakeholders to address concerns and validate the data.

Unveiling the "Real Majority" of India

Unveiling the "Real Majority": Divya Dwivedi’s Critique of the Hindu Majority Narrative * In contemporary Indian discourse, the notion of a "Hindu majority" is often taken as an unassailable fact, with official statistics frequently citing approximately 80% of India’s population as Hindu. This framing shapes political campaigns, cultural narratives, and even national identity. However, philosopher and professor at IIT Delhi, Divya Dwivedi, challenges this narrative in her provocative and incisive work, arguing that the "Hindu majority" is a constructed myth that obscures the true social composition of India. For Dwivedi, the "real majority" comprises the lower-caste communities—historically marginalized and oppressed under the caste system—who form the numerical and social backbone of the nation. Her critique, developed in collaboration with philosopher Shaj Mohan, offers a radical rethinking of Indian society, exposing the mechanisms of power t...

Mallanna Unleashes TRP: A New Dawn for Marginalized Voices in Telangana's Power Game

On September 17, 2025, Chintapandu Naveen Kumar, popularly known as Teenmar Mallanna—a prominent Telugu journalist, YouTuber, and former Congress MLC—launched the Telangana Rajyadhikara Party (TRP) in Hyderabad at the Taj Krishna Hotel. The event, attended by Backward Classes (BC) intellectuals, former bureaucrats, and community leaders, marked a significant moment for marginalized groups in Telangana. Mallanna, suspended from Congress in March 2025 for anti-party activities (including criticizing and burning the state's caste survey report), positioned TRP as a dedicated platform for BCs, Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), minorities, and the economically weaker sections. The party's vision emphasizes "Samajika Telangana" (a socially just Telangana) free from fear, hunger, corruption, and prejudice, with a focus on inclusive development and responsible governance. Key highlights from the launch: Symbolism : The date coincided with Periyar Jayanti and V...

Casteist Indian Bankers: Caste Bias Still Haunts Indian Banking

The Problem: Caste discrimination continues to plague the Indian banking sector, limiting access to credit for millions of lower-caste citizens. Data Point: A study  found that Scheduled Tribes (STs) face a 5-7% lower loan approval rate compared to higher castes, even after controlling for socioeconomic factors. How it Works: Discrimination in Action: Lower-caste individuals often encounter: Higher rejection rates for loan applications. Smaller loan amounts compared to higher-caste applicants. Less favorable terms, such as higher interest rates and stricter collateral requirements. The "Depositors, Not Borrowers" Mindset: Banks often view lower-caste individuals primarily as depositors, not as creditworthy borrowers. The Impact: Limited Economic Mobility: Restricted access to credit hampers entrepreneurship, reduces income growth, and perpetuates poverty cycles within marginalized communities. Reliance on Informal Lenders: The lack of access to formal ba...
