The State and Central governments are at it again, vying to celebrate the tenth anniversary of formation of Telangana State.
While the State government will kick off the 21 day celebrations at Secretariat on June 2 to mark the day separate Telangana took birth, the BJP-led Centre proposed to make it a single day affair at Golconda fort on the same day. Not to be outdone, the Congress too had its own plans for the occasion in a different way. It decided on Friday to expose the failures of BRS government in the last nine years by organising programmes to sensitise public right up to village level for 21 days, party sources said.
Both governments held parallel celebrations in connection with the Hyderabad Liberation Day on September 17. It was first for both the ruling parties, the BRS in State and BJP at Centre, to observe the event after shying away from it for several years to serve their political interests. None other than Union Home Minister Amit Shah participated in the programme organised by Central government at Parade Grounds. He reviewed the parade by Central security forces on the occasion.
