Bypolls for Ghanpur Likely in 3 Months: KCR
Deccan ChronicleWarangal: BRS chief and former chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao predicted that by-elections would be held in the Station Ghanpur Assembly constituency within three months as MLA Kadiam Srihari himself put an end to his political career and Thatikonda Rajaiah would be elected as the MLA from BRS party. Speaking at a roadshow in Hanamkonda on Sunday here, KCR said the people should question Srihari about the reason behind his defection to Congress though the BRS had honoured him by giving several posts including deputy chief minister and MLC and made him MLA by allotting the party ticket. “The people should teach such traitor a fitting lesson by electing BRS MP candidate Dr Sudheer Kumar in the Warangal Lok Sabha elections with a bumper majority,” he appealed. Whenever I remember the people’s poet Kaloji Narayana Rao and Prof. Jayashankar Sir who continuously fought for separate Telangana without compromising since 1969, I derived inspiration from them and led the movement since 2001,” he said.
