Ensure Karnataka has SCST chief minister in 2023, pontiff tells SCST community people
Belagavi: Leaders of the SCST communities decided in a meeting to follow the instructions of their pontiff while casting vote in the upcoming Assembly elections in Karnataka, to ensure that a candidate from an SCST community becomes chief minister this time.
The SCST community pontiff on Monday chaired the meeting in Belagavi, where the decision was taken, sources said.
The leaders pointed out during the meeting, “Members of the SCST communities number more than two crore in population. There are 101 sub-castes among scheduled castes and 50 sub-tribes in scheduled tribes. Yet, we have not had a single chief minister belonging to an SCST community in Karnataka, so far.”
They asked the people of all the 151 scheduled castes and scheduled tribes to unite and ensure that the 2023 elections give an opportunity for a person from one of the SCST communities to lead the state government.
“Our people should sideline any personal or even party-related differences during the upcoming elections. We should all vote for the candidates decided by our pontiff,” the leaders said at the meeting.
The SCST community pontiff is said to have met MLC Lakhan Jarkiholi and MLA Ramesh Jarkiholi at their residence after the meeting.
