Finally, the TRS delegation, led by minister Niranjan Reddy, has come back to Hyderabad empty handed. The delegation, which stayed in Delhi for over a week and demanded that the Centre buy all the grain from AP, has returned without realising any of their demands. The Centre has neither given them an assurance, nor accepted any of their demands.
With this, the delegation came back without achieving anything. Now questions are being raised as to why the whole agitation was launched at all. Union Minister Piyush Goel said that the State government should immediately send the 27 lakh tonne paddy that they owe to the Centre.
Meanwhile, Telangana PCC chief Revanth Reddy said that the whole drama was enacted by the TRS to dupe the gullible people of Telangana. He said that the TRS delegation ran away from Delhi after the Centre raised the issue of the missing 25000 metric tonnes of paddy. He said that the TRS lacked commitment on the issue of paddy procurement.
Questions are now being raised as to why no member of KCR family has participated in the protests in Delhi. Several analysts are asking as to why KTR and Rajya Sabha member Santosh Kumar or even Kavitha Kalwakuntla were not part of the delegation. This is now likely to become a big issue in Telangana in the coming days.
