Takes potshots at TRS, MIM; says party will also win all 17 LS seats in TS
The BJP will celebrate ‘Telangana Liberation Day’ officially and in a grand manner as it is confident of getting elected to power in 2023 Assembly Elections, said Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday. “The party will also win all the 17 Lok Sabha seats in Telangana, having won four this time and ‘lost three seats narrowly’”, he said at a public meeting held in Nirmal in Adilabad district.
Mr. Shah said that Sardar Patel’s decisive action then ensured Hyderabad and Telangana joined the Indian Union. He took potshots at the ruling TRS and MIM throughout his speech even while acknowledging the sacrifices made by people to break free from the Nizam’s tyranny and atrocities of the Razakars.
“We are not afraid of the Majlis Party. We will definitely celebrate Telangana Liberation Day and pay homage to the martyrs. What happened to the vow taken by Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao to celebrate the day officially during the separate State agitation? Who is he scared of?” he questioned.
