Gaddar calls people’s movement for Telangana

HYDERABAD : Balladeer Gaddar, who floated Telangana Samskruthika Samakhya (TSS) to fight for Telangana state, said besides a political movement, there was a dire need for a people’s movement in order to achieve a separate state.
At a ‘Meet The Press’ organised by the Telangana Journalists’ Forum here, Gaddar said ‘‘no single party or individual can achive Telangana. What is needed is a coordinated movement involving the people of the region.’’

Blaming the Congress and the TRS of pursuing vote bank politics in the name of a separate state and forgetting it on coming to power, he said the people will not believe the TRS as its legislators and the MPs were submitting their resignations at the drop of the hat only to seek re-election.

"They should explain why they failed in their mission everytime they got a fresh mandate," he asked. Gadar dismissed the apprehensions that separate Telangana will create more law and order problems. "The people need a democratic Telangana," he said.

He claimed that even the settlers from other regions were supporting separate Telangana as the exploitation of the poor by the Congress has increased manifold in recent times.

The TSS is conducting a meeting tomorrow at the Nizam College grounds, in which leaders from the BJP, BSP and RJD will take part. The TSS has decided to float a joint action committee to press for a separate state
