Shah: Liberation not celebrated due to politics of vote banks

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: Union home minister Amit Shah on Sunday hit out at “parties pursuing vote bank politics” for ignoring the Telangana Liberation Day celebrations on September 17, despite the formation of a separate state. Let me remind them that these parties that are worried, those who turn away from history, will realise people will turn away from them.” Shah was addressing a large gathering at the Parade Ground where the Government of India, for the second year running, celebrated the liberation of the then Hyderabad state on September 17, 1948. “The 399 days after India achieved Independence in 1947 were nothing short of hell in Hyderabad state and it was the then home minister and Iron Man of India, Sardar Patel, who decided that the only solution to end the woes of the people suffering under the rule of the Nizam and atrocities of the Razakaars was to use force and liberate Hyderabad,” Shah said. Munshi, liberated Hyderabad state without shedding a drop of blood.” It is important that we celebrate this day to keep the generations that will follow us informed about our history, so it can inspire them, and us, to rededicate ourselves for the development and well-being of India, Shah said.
