senior Congress leader and LB Nagara former MLA G Sudhir Reddy staged a dharna with hundreds of party workers in front of Telangana Civil Supplies Bhavan, Yerramanjil, Hyderabad against the price rise in Telangana on Wednesday.Sudhir Reddy lambasted the centre and state governments for their failure in controlling the prices of essential commodities. Reddy said this year the prices had gone up by 100 per cent when compared to prices of last year.
Recalling the TRS president KCR’s poll assurance regarding the controlling the prices, Reddy said the life of average Telangana man had worsened because of anti-people policies of chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao.
“KCR assured people before elections that he would set up a price-stabilization fund with Rs 500 crore in order to bring down the prices to within the reach of comman man. Where is the fund?” the Congress leader asked.
He said Congress would intensify the movement if government could not take steps to give succor to the people from the skyrocketing prices.
