The Telugu Desam politburo member Errebelli Dayakar Rao admittedthat his party cadres supported the Telangana Rashtra Samithi candidates in the recent by-polls.
`` It was not the political affiliation but it was the sentiment and the people voted for those candidates who had resigned from their seats for the sake of Telangana’’ said Erraballi Dayakar.
Dayakar appealed to the party authorities to wake up and take a reasonable decision on the Telangana issue, If w fail to rectify ourselves then we will have to suffer defeat in the coming elections also, Dayakar felt.
He, however, expressed confidence that the TDP had enough strength to counter the TRS and its negative campaign against the TDP. “We will expose the secret agenda between the TRS and the Congress,” he said.
