Nalgonda: Telangana State Legislative Council Chairman Gutha Sukender Reddy on Thursday dismissed the idea of a “political villain” in the state. He said cross-party leaders worked together to create Telangana.
Sukender Reddy said in an informal speech with his camp office that the BRS power of parliament was only two MPs, and when the Andhra Pradesh reorganization bill was introduced, “12 MPs from Telangana fought against the state, while BJP leader Sushma Swaraj won strong support in Lok Sabha.”
He noted that former Chief Minister and BRS President K. Chandrashekar Rao publicly admitted that he might not have been aware of Telangana without the initiative of then-Parliament President Sonia Gandhi. Sukender Reddy also praised Professors K. Jayashankar and M. Kodanandaram of Telangana’s ideology for their “important role” in excitement.
His critical reaction to the BRS said Congress delayed the decision, and he said the UPA administration, led by Congress, had to convince 25 MPs from Andhra Pradesh, which opposed the fork. The process always takes some time, he said.
Sukender Reddy also accused the Centre of demarcation of the council constituencies in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. “The AP Reorganization Act stipulates two other rallying departments in each Lok Sabha constituency in NSW, but demarcation is only completed in Jamu and Kashmir,” he said.
