Pensioners Donate Rs 9 Cr for Capital

Naidu decries KCR's threat on AP Staff
Talking with APNGO leaders who called on him, Naidu denounced the threat of his Telangana counterpart K Chandrasekhar Rao that Seemandhra employees would not be allowed in Telangana secretariat.
It was not appropriate for Rao to make provocative remarks against employees of other regions, he said. 'Rao should exercise restraint while speaking on sensitive issues. A leader of that stature should not create law and order problems,' said Naidu.
