Telangana Congress paid rich tributes to the late Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy on his 73rd birth anniversary on Friday with the party leaders and his followers referring to him as architect of the welfare programmes in the combined Andhra Pradesh.
Top leaders including TPCC president, A. Revanth Reddy; CLP leader Bhatti Vikramarka; TPCC working presidents Anjan Kumar Yadav and Mahesh Kumar Goud; former PCC chief Ponnala Lakshmaiah; AICC secretary N.S. Bose Raju; senior leaders Shabbir Ali, Dasoju Sravan, Mallu Ravi and Kusuma Kumar garlanded the YSR statue at Panjagutta early in the morning.
Mr. Revanth Reddy said the absence of YSR was felt by everyone and he would have taken both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Telangana CM K. Chandrashekhar Rao to task for their anti-people governance. Recalling the schemes, he said the free power to agriculture was made possible by YSR shattering all the myths around it.
