After KTR, Its Harish Rao's Turn to support VSP movement

Update: 2021-03-12 14:24 GMT
The ongoing protests surrounding the burning issue of Andhra Pradesh, Visakhapatnam Steel Plant(VSP) is gaining support from fellow Telugu state Telangana. After Telangana IT Minister KTR, one more Minister supports the protests.

TRS leader, Minister of Finance in KCR cabinet, T. Harish Rao has also supported the protests and said, we will support the ongoing protests to save the steel plant. We will not be silent if the public sector firms are privatised, he said.

In his recent interview, Harish Rao targeted the BJP government over its decision to privatise the public sectors. The BJP, which has privatised the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited(BSNL) is privatizing one after the other companies.

Why should we remain silent on the Vizag Steel Plant row?. Going by their spree of privatising the Public Sector Undertaking companies, the Centre is now gearing up for privatising the Vizag Steel Plant. The Centre will privatise the Singareni Collieries Company and other companies in Telangana also if we are silent, Harish Rao said.

Harish Rao is also stressing the same opinion of the IT Minister that, if they(Telangana) remain silent on the issues in Andhra Pradesh, no one will come for them if the same happens to Telangana state.

However, the opposition parties in Telangana are finding fault with the TRS for responding to issues in Andhra Pradesh, batting a blind eye towards the issues in Telangana.

The Telangana wing of BJP slammed the TRS for supporting the protests in Andhra Pradesh. BJP alleged that the TRS which has promised to reopen several old factories in the state is not bothered about it.
