KTR to Contest from Bhimavaram on Telugu Rashtra Samiti Ticket
Telagana Rashtra Samithi was the single largest party in Telangana and there was no proper opposition for the party in the state. The party is often called by its leaders as the mascot of the Telangana movement and the state's self-respect.
The party which is focusing on upcoming GHMC elections is using all th eways to attract the Andhra voters who settled in hydearbad. The party's prominent leader, IT minister KTR made some interesting remarks recently while addressing a gathering of Andhra Pradesh natives living in Hyderabad earlier this week.
The IT and Panchayat Raj Minister KT Rama Rao said they are going to change Telangana Rashtra Samiti into Telugu Rashtra Samiti as KCR is loved by people of both the states equally. KTR recalled an AP minister's words that that Telangana CM KCR has bigger following in Andhra than what AP CM has and said that it is enough to rechristen the TRS party as Telugu Rashtra Samithi.
He cited the Amaravati incident to prove his point.That is not all. KTR even expressed his wish to contest from Bhimavaram should the party go to AP. KTR said "I know people of Bhimavaram, mostly Kshatriyas, are like kings when it comes to playing hosts. They serve food liberally and won't leave you until you eat all the items on platter''. As a joke KTR said that if cock fights are legalized he can easily win at the Bhimavaram.
