Declaring a battle against the BJP-led NDA government, Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao will hold a conclave of opposition parties in the second week of December.
New Delhi: Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao has declared battle against the BJP and the Modi government. Rao has announced that he will be holding a conclave of opposition parties in the second week of December.
Will speak with all anti-BJP leaders in India and organise a conclave in Hyderabad in the second week of December, said Rao.
We should stand against the Modi government and TRS will fight for it, he added.
The TRS supremo sharpened his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi raising questions over the disinvestment proposals related to public sector units, including LIC, and privatisation of Railways.
‘God knows where the chaiwala has gone’
Taking a dig at the PM he said that Modi who described himself as ‘chaiwala’ at a railway station was now ‘selling’ the railway station.
“God knows where the ‘chaiwala’ has gone. The person who said he sold tea is now selling the railway station… What is the necessity to privatise railways that provide employment to lakhs and serve crores of people?” PTI quoted Rao as saying.
He further said that voice definitely needs to be raised in India against the Modi government’s attitude towards PSUs and the anti-farmer actions.
Rao gave this statement while addressing party leaders on the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections scheduled for December 1.
‘Want a peaceful city or one that would witness communal violence’
He also alleged that the NDA government has not given even a single penny in assistance for victims of recent heavy rains and flooding in the city.
On communalism and polarization, KCR said that some parties indulged in creating divisions for temporary gains which needed to be countered.
TRS leaders should start a debate asking the people of Hyderabad whether they wanted a peaceful city that achieved rapid economic growth or one that would witness communal violence and curfews, he said.
