While the government has already ordered the BC Commission as a special commission to conduct a caste survey, the commission has also taken responsibility for the BC caste survey. Meanwhile, the public inquiry has been completed in the former joint districts of Adilabad, Nizamabad, Karimnagar, Medak and Warangal. Public inquiry program is to be held in other districts. The BC Commission is going to meet on Monday in the context of setting up a special commission. The meeting will finalize the schedule of the next public inquiry to be held on the increase of reservation for BCs in local bodies.
