K. Kavitha forms Singareni Jagruthi to support coal workers, hinting at political ambitions amid party tensions.
HYDERABAD
Days after Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC K. Kavitha’s letter to her father and party president K. Chandrasekhar Rao on organisational matters became public, she announced formation of Singareni Jagruthi to work for the welfare of the coal company workers in association with the Telangana Boggu Gani Karmika Sangham.
The TBGKS affiliated to BRS was the recognised trade union of the Singareni Collieries Company Ltd till Congress came to power. By announcing that the new outfit would give preference to ‘bahujans’ and youth in line with her programmes in the recent months, she has made it clear that, unlike her Telangana Jagruthi, the new body would have political overtures.
During the recent months, Ms. Kavitha has taken up several programmes not directly linked to BRS and centred around social justice (samajika Telangana). She appointed coordinators of Singareni Jagruthi for 11 Singareni mining areas. She stated that dependent jobs were revived in Singareni under the leadership of KCR, but the present Congress government was planning to kill the company in association with the Centre.
Meanwhile, Ms. Kavitha’s next move is being speculated in different ways after the party leadership has apparently made it clear to her through a close confidante that she was given every opportunity that was possible in the party and it was not possible to give her more space.
A BJP MP from the State M. Raghunandan Rao claimed that Ms. Kavitha would float a new party on June 2 and that she would take up a padayatra after announcing the party.
