Solution

The correct option is C Reddys and Kammas of Andhra Pradesh
SVD governments replaced the Congress in 1967 elections, and this led to the first democratic upsurge.

These castes included the Vokkaligas in Karnataka and the Vellalas in Tamil Nadu, the Jats in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, Kurmis and Koeris of Bihar, Lodhs in Madhya Pradesh, the Reddys and Kammas in Andhra Pradesh.
