Ready to face KCR in next elections if party orders: Eatala Rajender

‘People of Telangana have lost faith in KCR’
Former Minister and BJP MLA from Huzurabad Eatala Rajender said on Thursday that he was ready to contest against Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao if his party ‘orders’ him to do so in the next elections. “I have been elected seven times from Huzurabad, so there is no need, but I will, if I am asked to,” he told a ‘Meet the Press’ programme organised by the Telangana Journalists Union.
“One thing is clear, people of Telangana have lost their faith in Mr. Rao, Harish Rao or any of the ministers because their words and deeds have not matched. The party is a gone case and am confident the BJP will come to power,” he asserted.
“Take the case of job notifications, double bedroom housing and the somersaults on agriculture policy, it is clear the TRS Government announces them just before any elections and forgets about them later,’ he said. Like most regional parties, TRS is run by Mr. Rao with an iron hand with no internal democracy and hence, has to take the responsibility for the current sorry state of affairs in TS.
