“I want to remind Amit Shah ji that the Congress government is in power in Telangana. Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi cannot abolish four per cent reservation to Muslims,” Revanth Reddy said.
Extending Ramzan greetings to Muslims, Revanth Reddy said the Congress government would strive to deliver secular governance and reminded them that the Congress government headed by late Chief Minister Y.S. Rajashekar Reddy introduced four per cent reservations to Muslims and extended subsidy loans through finance corporations.

So, CM Revanth Reddy has now agreed that Hindus will get third-class citizen treatment and only Muslims have the right to reap the benefits in the state? pic.twitter.com/DTxx1k3kVk
The Congress government in the past had appointed the best lawyers to fight for the reservations in the Supreme Court, when petitions were filed opposing reservations extended by the Congress in combined Andhra Pradesh.
"Hindus and Muslims are my two eyes. It is our responsibility to protect the Muslim’s interests," Revanth Reddy said.
Stressing that the Congress believed in secularism, he said that his government had appointed Mohd Shabbir Ali as the Advisor to the Government. Even in the newly constituted TSPSC Board, the state government ensured representation of minorities, He said the government will appoint a minority community member as the vice-chancellor to one of the universities in the state soon.
