HYDERABAD: The Congress has accorded priority to SC, ST and BC communities in the cabinet and 20 of the 41 ministers are from weaker sections, PCC president Botcha Satyanarayana has claimed. He told reporters on Tuesday that all communities, including Mala and Madiga, were satisfied with their representation, and Telangana would get more representation in the near future. Refuting reports that the chief minister and the deputy chief minister had differences over allocation of portfolios, the PCC president said chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy would resolve the issue to the satisfaction of all.
