KCR got Telangana democratically

Deccan Chronicle  

HYDERBAD: If the 13-year-long struggle for a separate Telangana state is often described as a second freedom movement, ardent fans of Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao justify that they have every reason to describe him as “Telangana Bapu”. Chandrashekar Rao steered the agitation within the democratic set-up, more so through electoral politics, and consistently engaged people in various agitational programmes but never allowed violence to creep into the otherwise political process. Telangana consciousness is always there among people but he rekindled hopes at a time when no contemporary political leader would have even thought in wildest dreams about bifurcation,” said political analyst Prof. K. Nageshwar. While the hypothetical question of whether Telangana state would have become a reality had Rajashekara Reddy been alive always remains, Chandrashekar Rao made the best of his absence post-2009 and made the announcement of a new state by the Centre inevitable.
