‘KCR, not statute, needs change’

Telangana BJP president and MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar said that it is not the Constituion which needed to be changed but the Chief Minister of Telangana and called upon people to throw the ‘anti-democratic’ government of K Chandrasekhar Rao from power on Friday.

“There is no need to re-write the Constitution. We need to re-write the history of Telangana by dumping this anti-Dalit, anti-Girijan and anti-weaker sections regime of KCR in Bay of Bengal,” he said. ‘TRS-mukt Telangana” was the sole objective of BJP, he said and claimed that a ‘democratic’ Telangana was possible only if the ‘anti-people TRS regime rooted out.

The BJP leader said while the people of TS were “feeling ashamed” of the Chief Minister for demanding that the Constitution of India should be rewritten, “the TRS leaders are brazenly defending KCR’s statement without any shame.” He was speaking to media after taking out a ‘padayatra’ (foot march) from Telangana Bhavan to Parliament in New Delhi, in protest against the call for new Constitution by the TS CM.
