The Telangana Joint Action Committee (TJAC) chairman Prof M Kodandaram, who has been till now only restricting his attack on Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to media conferences and expressing solidarity to the agitations of various mass organisations, is now seems to be moving towards a direct action.
Till now, he has been targeting the Telangana government, without directly mentioning Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s name. But now for the first time directly referring to KCR, he lamented that Chief Minister has become inaccessible to people.
He has announced that they would be formulating an action plan to step up its offensive against the government at the TJAC steering committee being held today. Revealing his discontent over the Chief Minister, yesterday he observed that “As KCR has become inaccessible to people, they are eagerly looking towards the ongoing Assembly session thinking that their problems will be discussed on the floor of the House and the government will resolve their woes”.
However, speaking at the celebrations of TJAC’s foundation day, he deplored that no significant decisions are being taken in the Assembly. Coming down heavily on the ruling TRS, he deplored that instead of answering the issues raised by the TJAC, the ruling party has adopted a habit of launching counter-attacks against him.
Strongly condemning the attitude of the TRS government, he accused that it was ignoring Telangana movement’s objectives. He also said that today’s steering committee meeting would chalk out its future course of action on people’s issues.
Asserting that he would move ahead against the government’s ill-motivated policies, Kodandaram said that they are prepared to question the government over issues such as forcible land procurement for projects from farmers, improper implementation of fee reimbursement scheme for students, farmers’ suicides, opencast mining and other issues.
Deploring that the TRS government failed to provide governance in the state, he lashed out at the Chief Minister for changing his stance on reviving the Nizam Sugar Factory. He demanded that the government change its mind and take over the sugar unit.
