Amit Shah rakes up Hyderabad Liberation struggle & BRS neglect

Union Home Minister Amit Shah tried to rake up the Telangana armed liberation struggle against the Nizam and his militia army Razakkars to stoke emotions among the public at two different public meetings held in Jangaon and Korutla in the heart of north Telangana on Monday.

Mr. Shah accused Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao of refusing to celebrate the Hyderabad Liberation Day brought about by Sardar Patel as he was scared of Majlis Party and its leader Owaisi. “Should we not celebrate the Liberation Day? Once BJP government is formed we will celebrate it officially and also observe the Atrocities Day on August 27. We will build a grand memorial for the martyrs of the Bhairanpally massacre by the Razakkars,” he promised the gatherings.

The BJP leader said the Assembly elections results will not only determine the future of Telangana but also that of the nation in the next five years reminding the people about the need for their support so that Prime Minister Narendra Modi gets another term in the top post during the next general elections.
