In Telangana on Monday, student activists, along with members of BRS and BJYM, staged protests calling for the Congress government to announce a 'job calendar' and address issues related to unemployed youth.

BRS MLA Palla Rajeshwar Reddy visited Gandhi Hospital to meet hunger-striking activist Motilal Naik. Despite Naik's hospitalization, Rajeshwar Reddy and other activists were detained and later released by the police, according to BRS sources.

K T Rama Rao, BRS Working President, criticized the Congress government for obstructing the meeting between Rajeshwar Reddy and Naik. Rao affirmed the party's support for unemployed youth, while BJYM's General Secretary Kasam Venkateshwarlu demanded the fulfillment of government promises, including a Rs 4,000 unemployment dole and an increase in teacher recruitment posts.
