Ever since the NDA government led by Narendra Modi came to power, nearly 3,500 dalits were attacked and 20 dalits were killed across the country by feudal minded activists of BJP and its affiliated organisations, he complained.
Attacks were being made on food habits of 20 crore dalits and 15 crore Muslims, efforts were on to abolish reservations in jobs and education. The Chief Minister, K Chandrashekar Rao, who promised three acre land to landless dalits, was not interested to implement it fully, he alleged.

In the name of cow slaughter prevention, dalits in Gujarat, Haryana, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh were being attacked, he alleged. Those attacking dalits should be punished severely, Kattaiah demanded.
The Warangal District Bar Association president B Jayakar, TMRPS president B Bikshapathi, rights activists E Naraiah, Routu Ramesh, N Ratnamala, A Kumar, B Chakrapani, Ch Rajender and others were present.
