KCR dares Congress MLAs from Telangana to resign

Staff Reporter

KARIMNAGAR: Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K. Chandrashekhar Rao has reiterated his challenge to Congress MLAs of Telangana region to resign en masse and contest fresh elections to prove their sincerity if they believed that there was no Telangana sentiment.

Mr. Rao, who visited flood-affected areas in Karimnagar on Wednesday, told newsmen that the Telangana sentiment was very much alive. He said former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu spoke of developing Telangana and even claimed that the TRS would be wiped out within six months, but the TDP itself was wiped out in Andhra Pradesh.

Mr. Rao said that no force could dilute the issue of separate statehood for Telangana as long as he was alive.
