PM at least agreed Congress gave Telangana: Revanth

TRS holds rallies across Telangana against PM’s remarks

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks in the Rajya Sabha on Telangana formation have led to a huge uproar in Telangana and the TPCC president, A. Revanth Reddy said at least Mr. Modi agreed that it was the Congress that gave Telangana rebutting the claims of Telangana Rashtr Samiti (TRS).

In a tweet, he said that Mr. Modi’s speech in Parliament has exposed two big facts — It was Congress and not TRS which got the Telangana State, and BJP hates Telangana and did nothing for it. Mr. Modi should apologise unconditionally for insulting Telangana martyrs, he said adding the hashtag #ModiHatesTelangana.

In a separate tweet, Mr. Reddy questioned Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao’s silence on the issue even as the TRS activists across the State held rallies and burnt the effigies of the Prime Minister.
