TPCC president B. Mahesh Kumar addressing an OBC public meeting at Shamshabad on Sunday.

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president B. Mahesh Kumar Goud said that the Congress was committed to securing a greater political share for Backward Classes (BCs) and asserted that a BC leader would become Chief Minister of Telangana in future.

He reiterated the demand for inclusion of a BC/OBC column in the nationwide Census-2027 and called upon BCs to unite and fight for its inclusion.

Addressing a public meeting, organised under the chairmanship of TPCC OBC cell chairman and MLA Veerlapalli Shankar at Shamshabad on Sunday (October 4, 2026), Mr. Goud said that Rahul Gandhi had given the Congress the political confidence to take up the cause of BC rights and social justice.
