Telangana CM KCR forming national party on Modi’s directions, says Revanth

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy alleged that the establishment of new national political party by Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president and Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao is taking shape under the directions of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“The aim of Mr. Chandrashekar Rao is to see that TRS should come back to power in Telangana and the BJP at Centre for the third time. For that, he has been making arrangements by establishing a new national party, and distance all the parties that are supporting the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) led by Congress. Had he made any effort to break some party from BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA)?” asked Mr Revanth Reddy while speaking to reporters here on Monday. He said that the relationship between two parties became more stronger after allotment of land for party office to TRS in New Delhi.

“I have submitted several representations in regard to corruption involving Mr. Chandrashekar Rao in ESI hospitals and Sahara cases. But the Centre is silent in this regard. In the case related to ‘Bangaru Kuli’ by TRS leaders, Income Tax officials from the State are yet to submit a report despite the directions from Central Board of Direct Taxation (CBDT) and Supreme Court. The registration of TRS will be cancelled once the report is submitted,” said the TPCC president.
