We don’t need lessons on democracy : KTR

KTR has today targeted the MIM for advising the TRS members to ‘first learn what democracy is’ in the wake of the disturbances in the Assembly on Feb 17. Speaking at a meeting of the Telangana Private Employees’ Association at Telangana Bhavan, he said the TRS didn’t need lessons on democracy from the MIM. In the first place, the MIM did not believe in democracy.

“Have they forgotten how they targeted Bangladesh writer Tasleema Nasreen and the attack by their partymen on doctors at the Niloufer Hospital?” he asked.

Referring to PCC president D Srinivas describing Feb 17 as a dark day in the annals of the Assembly, Rama Rao wondered what definition he had when his son brandished a revolver at media-persons during the recent by-election in Nizamabad.

The Congress party leadership had humiliated leaders from the Telangana region by not giving them an audience though they were in Delhi for nearly one week. No top Congress leader had given them any assurance on the Telangana issue.

“Only to save their face, they are claiming that the party is seized of the issue,” said Rama Rao.

The Congress MLAs should realise that they had been humiliated at Delhi and join hands with the Telangana organisations to take forward the movement for securing a Telagnana state.
