TRS indulging in dirty politics over Appointed Day: TPCC

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee chief spokesperson Dr Shravan Kumar on Thursday accused the Telangana Rashtra Samithi of indulging in dirty politics over the “Appointed Day” on June 2.

Speaking to media persons at Gandhi Bhavan here, Shravan Kumar criticised TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao for seeking preponement of Appointed Day to May 17. He said that the Centre has finalised the Appointed Day after following due procedures. The decision taken by the Union Cabinet on Appointed Day also got the approval of President Pranab Mukherjee. Therefore, approaching the court seeking preponement at this juncture is highly condemnable, he said.

Shravan also accused KCR of betraying the Dalits by going back on his words of making a Dalit the first Chief Minister of Telangana. He claimed that people, especially the Dalits and minorities, have rejected the TRS and it would be proved on May 16 when results will be announced.
