Telangana people to vote for TRS

Sounding the election bugle, Telangana Rashtra Samithi president, Mr K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Thursday directed Telangana people to vote for TRS nominees in the municipal, Assembly and Lok Sabha polls to ensure accelerated development of the new state.

“TRS is a secular party. You have seen the trouble we faced in Parliament recently as I was the lone MP. If we had 15 MPs, we would have called the shots at the Centre. Do not vote for MLA candidate of one party and MP of another. Vote for both Telangana Rashtra Samithi candidates. We should win both the seats to ensure a golden Telangana,” he said.

Mr Rao was addressing the first public meeting after formation of Telangana and announcement of election schedule at Gadwal in Mahbubnagar district, 200 km from here, where YSRC in-charge, Mr B. Krishnamohan Reddy, ex-municipal chairman, Mr Keshav, ex-MLA, Mr Gattu Bheemudu and others joined the TRS. He did not mention alliance with any party. Mr Rao promised to construct a new barrage across Krishna River at Gurramgadda, 8 km from Beechpally to provide irrigation to 14 lakh acres in Kollapur, Wanaparathy, Gadwal, Alampur, Nagarkurnool, Deverkadra and other Assembly segments in Mahbubnagar district. He said he would fight for Telangana’s share of irrigation to 87,500 acres from the controversial RDS project where the region presently gets water for only 30,000 acres.

“I will ensure we get our share of water. In 2002, when I undertook padayatra, Byreddy Rajasekhar Reddy, Bhooma Nagi Reddy threatened to throw bombs,” he recalled.
The TRS chief is on a political recruitment spree, targeting YSRC and TD, especially in areas where the party does not have a stronghold like Mahbubnagar, Ranga Reddy and Khammam.

Asking people to shun faction politics in Gadwal, he announced Mr Krishnamohan Reddy as party candidate in Gadwal Assembly constituency, Mr Gattu Bheemudu for MLC while Mr Keshav or his nominee would fight the municipal polls.

“Politics must change in Gadwal. We should put an end to factionalism and strive to live in peace and harmony to ensure development,” he said. Taking a dig at both Congress and TD, he said people have seen their rule and they should now give a chance to Telangana Rashtra Samithi to ensure rapid development of Telangana.

He made a slew of promises including ST status for Valmiki community (presently BCs), regularisation of contract staff, rope Girijan thandas into panchayats, end migration of labourers from Mahbubnagar among others.

TRS Moves Privilege Motion Against CM Kirankumar

09/13/2020 By admin

Hyderabad : TRS today moved a privilege motion in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly against the Chief Minister for “misleading the House” and going back on his word by opposing the draft AP Re-organisation Bill-2013 that provides for the creation of a separate state of Telangana. TRS MLA K T Rama Rao moved the motion as the AP Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy rose to continue his speech on the draft Bill today afternoon. Recalling AP Chief Minister’s statement on the floor of the House on February 20, 2011, that he would implement the Government of India’s decision on the bifurcation issue, Rama Rao alleged that the chief minister has gone back on his promise.

“The Chief Minister repeatedly told this House that the bifurcation issue has to be decided by the Centre and that he would implement the decision, whatever it be. But, he has now openly opposed the draft Bill that provides for creation of a Telangana state. This amounts to misleading the House,” TRS member said and moved a privilege motion against the AP Chief Minister. Rama Rao also took exception to the AP CM quoting from the speeches of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and some other MPs in Parliament. “As per rules of the House, the Chief Minister can’t quote from the Parliament’s records without issuing a notice. This is a violation of rules,” he said.

The AP CM continued his address and reiterated that the Telangana region would suffer the most if Andhra Pradesh is bifurcated. “Telangana will become an upper riparian state and will have to forego a large share of river water. Currently, irrigation projects worth Rs 12,700 crore are underway in Telangana in the Krishna Basin. These projects, particularly those in Mahbubnagar and Nalgonda districts, will go waste,” AP CM Kiran Kumar said.

When people from the Seemaandhra region did not object to construction of the Pranahita-Chevella project, why are people in Telangana opposing the multi-purpose Polavaram major irrigation project on the river Godavari, Reddy questioned. Referring to power, the AP CM said that 175 million units would be required for lift irrigation schemes alone in the Telangana region during the coming four years, for which and investment of Rs 40,000 crore would be required. “There are no coal or gas linkages. How will power be produced and where will such massive investment come from if the state is bifurcated,” he asked. Power shortage as a whole in the Telangana region would increase to 50 per cent in the event of bifurcation, he said.

A whopping Rs 60,000 crore is required to complete various ongoing irrigation projects in Telangana, he said, adding unless the state remains united, we can’t complete these projects and do good to farmers. The AP CM also refuted claims of Telangana leaders that all coal from Singareni Collieries Company Ltd was being supplied to power projects in coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema regions. “Not a single tonne of coal from Singareni is coming to coastal Andhra. Rayalaseema gets 38 lakh tonnes per annum, while power plants in Telangana get about 185 lakh tonnes. About 57 per cent of coal generated in Singareni is being used in Telangana region alone. Coal allocation is made by the Centre,” the AP CM said. The CM’s address remained inconclusive since the House was adjourned for the day after it was reported that the deadline to return the draft Bill has been extended till January 30.

TDP senior leader Tummala Nageswara Rao quits party; likely to join TRS

08/08/2020 By admin

Telugu Desam Party senior leader and former minister Tummala Nageswara Rao has resigned from the party on Saturday. He is likely to join TRS on September 5.

In a major setback to the TDP, the party district president Kondabala Koteswara Rao, zilla parishad chairperson G Kavitha, MLC B Lakshminarayana, DCCB chairman M Vijay Babu, DCMS chairman A Anjaiah and others quit the party en-masse.

Mr Nageswara Rao and the remaining leaders reportedly sent their resignation letters to the TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu on Saturday afternoon. Sources said that Mr Rao conveyed his decision to quit the party without specifying any particular reason for his exit in his one-sentence resignation letter addressed to Mr Chandrababu Naidu.

Sources close to Mr Rao attributed his decision to quit the TDP, severing his more than three decade old association with the party since its inception, to his differences with the former MP Nama Nageswara Rao.

Mr Tummala Nageswara Rao’s supporters blamed his rival group for his defeat in the recent Assembly elections from Khammam constituency.

Parties gear up for GHMC Elections

05/01/2015 By admin

All Telangana State Parties Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS), MIM, BJP, Telugu Desam (TD), Congress and other parties are gearing up for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections following the High Court’s directive to the Telangana state government to hold elections by December 15.

Parties gear up for GHMC Elections

With an eye on the GHMC Elections, Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has announced massive developmental programmes in the city and surrounding areas, which fall under the Corporation.

Sources said that the CM has asked the GHMC to focus on recarpeting of roads, improving streetlights, drinking water and other pending developmental works in Patancheru and Ramachandrapuram of Medak district that fall under the GHMC limits and also in all old municipalities surrounding Hyderabad including Malkajgiri, Uppal, Kapra, Rajendranagar, Kukatpally etc. where people are unhappy with basic amenities, especially roads and drinking water.

Mr Rao, who wants to project the successful power-cut free summer, wants officials to complete the pending works before the announcement of the GHMC polls. Besides Swachh Hyderabad and Telangana, high-rise buildings, sky ways, surveillance cameras all over the city to ensure law and order, 150 vegetable and meat markets and recarpeting of roads, the CM wants to promote the new Telangana Kalabharathi at NTR Stadium, which will house multiple theatres.

Home minister Nayani Narasimha Reddy said they would focus on various developmental works after the political training classes, being held at Nagarjunasagar from May 1 to 4, get over.

The CM a held series of meetings with city ministers — Deputy CM Mahmood Ali, home minister Narasimha Reddy, excise minister T. Padma Rao, commercial taxes minister T. Srinivas Yadav and others — and asked them to gear up for elections.

The TRS, which had zero strength in the last GHMC body, is now in an upbeat mood with the defection of several TD MLAs and the recent success of the party plenary and Vijay Garjana meetings.

Not to be outdone, TDP is contemplating holding the party Mahanadu in Hyderabad with an eye on the GHMC elections. The TDP, which had 45 corporators in the outgoing corporation, is confident of winning a large number of seats thanks to the huge Seemandhra population, according to party leaders.

The BJP too is confident of winning a good number of seats in GHMC after the victory of its candidate, N. Ramachandra Rao, in the Graduates MLC polls.
