Boost for women, weaker sections in YSRCP list of mayors, chairpersons

The YSRCP led by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy has declared its candidates for the posts of mayors and chairpersons, allocating 60.47% of the posts to women. This means that out of 86 posts, 52 posts are held by women. Also, to “ensure the welfare of the SC/ST/BC/minority communities”, the YSRCP has decided that 78% representatives would be from the weaker sections. This means that out of the 86 posts, the government has decided to give 67 posts to the backward communities (SC/ ST/ BC/ minorities).

The CM Jagan-led government has also allocated 50% of temple boards, agricultural marketing committees, nomination posts, and nominated contracts to SC/ST/BC/minority social groups and allocated 50% of all posts to women.
