Uttam Kumar Reddy's sensational comments: More tickets to Andhras in Telangana
When Telangana was formed, the Andhraites in Telangana were jittery and confused. But, five years later, every political party is pandering to the same Andhra voter in Telangana. The TRS has already given lot of tickets to Andhraites in GHMC elections. Now, here comes the sensational statement of PCC chief Uttam Kumar Reddy. He said that his party would give good number of tickets to Andhraites in 2019 elections.
He said the Andhraites in Telangana are quintessentially Telanganites and that they should be given proper representation.
He said in 2014, the Andhraites were upset with the Congress because it had divided the state. But, this time around, the situation is different and the Andhra people in Telangana will back the Congress. The Congress will give them adequate number of seats, he said. He also asked why KCR, who claims that the division was done as per his diktats, is unable to get tribal university and railway coach factory promised to Telangana in the bifurcation act. He also charged KCR for going back on his statement that he had no objection if AP was given special status.
This statement of Uttam Kumar Reddy is sure to create lot of commotion in Telangana politics. How will the TRS respond to this challenge? Let's see what happens.
