New outfit to be formed on July 8
Sharmila, daughter of former Chief Minister of erstwhile united Andhra Pradesh late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy, vowed to form a new political party on YSR’s birth anniversary on July 8, 2021. The name of the new political party and its agenda will be unveiled on the same day, she announced at a well-attended Sankalpa Sabha, a public meeting held in Khammam on Friday night. Training her guns at the ruling TRS party, she charged the persons at the helm with betraying the faith of unemployed youth, farmers and aspirations of people of Telangana. The self-esteem of people of Telangana is being crushed under the feet of Doras (rulers), she alleged, adding that Telangana earned the dubious distinction of witnessing more than 6,000 farmers’ suicides, the second highest in the country.
