Bhongir MP Komatireddy Venkata Reddy ridiculed the comments of Municipal Minister K.T. Rama Rao on the role of Congress in the Telangana agitation and said that belittling Sonia Gandhi’s contribution showcased his ignorance and arrogance.
Responding to KTR’s comments with reporters in an informal chat on Tuesday, he said those who were in the USA when the Congress leaders were fighting for a separate Telangana were passing demeaning remarks. “It was the Congress MPs and Ministers who fought against their own party for the cause of Telangana while BRS was full of Telangana haters,” he said.
Mr. Rama Rao earlier commented that Ms. Sonia Gandhi did not give Telangana but was forced to pass the Bill fearing backlash from the people. “If that was the case, why did KCR’s family go and thank Ms. Gandhi at her house and also seek her blessings?” he asked.
