Telangana Minister for Law and Endowments A. Indrakaran Reddy has condemned the reported remarks of Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan made after meeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi on Thursday on the State Government and on dissolving the State Assembly.
Speaking at Nirmal on Friday, Mr. Indrakaran Reddy said the Governor’s comments that the Telangana Legislative Assembly would have been dissolved had she wished were made beyond her purview and forgetting history. He also refuted the Governor’s allegation that protocol was not being followed by the State Government in her case.
Suggesting that such comments from persons holding gubernatorial posts was highly uncalled for, he recalled the revolt by people after dismissing the N.T. Rama Rao Government in August 1984 by the then Governor of Andhra Pradesh Thakur Ram Lal. However, bowing to the public outrage Rama Rao was reinstalled as Chief Minister a month later, Mr. Indrakaran Reddy recollected.
