Hyderabad: TRS president K Chandrasekhar
Rao on Thursday came under criticism from Andhra Pradesh Congress
leaders for attacking state Congress president D Srinivas.
Chandrasekhar Rao has hit out at Srinivas for not
submitting a report in favour of separate Telangana to the Sri
Krishna committee citing objections from Congress leaders from
non-Telangana regions.
"Submitting report to the Sri Krishna committee is an
internal matter of our party. Why should Chandrasekhar Rao
talk about it?," senior Congress MLA S Sailajanath told
reporters.
The committee was appointed by the Centre to examine
the situation in Andhra Pradesh over the Telangana issue.
"Chandrasekhar Rao is making allegations against
Srinivas only to prove his existence. He (TRS president) tried
to please Srinivas to have an electoral alliance with Congress
for the 2004 elections. How can he forget those days?," state
Health Minister and Congress` Hyderabad unit president D
Nagender asked.
Describing Chandrasekhar Rao as an "untrustworthy
person", Sailajanath alleged that the TRS president spoke
against the issues which he is highlighting now.
"He (Rao) tries to project himself as champion of
Telangana. He says various agreements like six-point formula
and Hyderabad, which were meant to benefit Telangana, have
never been implemented. But in 1996, he spoke against such
agreements on the floor of the house as a TDP MLA,"
Sailajanath said.
