Telangana State Bharatiya Janata Party president and Karimnagar MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar is a man on a mission. Despite the sweltering heat, and shrugging away dehydration and related health issues, he has been on his second ‘Praja Sangrama Yatra’ covering Mahabubnagar area. On the 21st day, he explains his objective in this exclusive interview:
Why are you carrying out a ‘padayatra’ now and any particular reason for choosing this route?
This erstwhile district was adopted by Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao but has seen little progress – there is no water, no employment, farmers are in distress, migration is rampant and schools are defunct with deficit infrastructure while health facilities are virtually non-existent. I want to highlight this monumental neglect of the Congress then and Telangana Rastra Samithi (TRS) now and also show our presence here.
