The Cyberabad Municipal Corporation (CMC) is exploring a dedicated grievance mechanism for Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) communities, discussed at a meeting with Telangana State Commission for SCs and STs Chairman Bakki Venkataiah on Wednesday. The meeting reviewed development of SC/ST colonies via focused sub-plans, including basic amenities, approach roads to burial grounds, and multipurpose function halls. Welfare measures for sanitation workers and street vendors were also discussed, such as support for vendors, PPE kits, insurance coverage, and health insurance for permanent and outsourced employees. Scholarships and livelihood opportunities for SC/ST members were on the agenda, alongside reservation compliance in development works, tenders, and financial allocations. The need for effective implementation and inter-departmental coordination was emphasised.
