Laxman stirs up anti-KCR faction

November 9, 2011
DC
Hyderabad

The deeksha undertaken by freedom fighter Konda Laxman Bapuji has
virtually split the various groups fighting for Telangana statehood
into pro and anti-KCR factions, even as expectations are high that the
Centre will take a decision on the contentious issue. Forces against
TRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao are openly rallying around Mr
Laxman Bapuji and targeting KCR and his party as the TRS has not
extended support to the deeksha nor has it sent any representatives to
participate in it.

The absence of TRS support has given an opportunity to anti-KCR
forces, including Telangana Telu-gu Desam Forum, Madiga Reservation
Porata Sami-thi, Telangana United Front leader and former MLC Dileep
Kumar and others to try and target Mr Chandrasekhar Rao. How-ever, the
Congress, despite being targeted sporadically by the TRS, is yet to
train its guns on Mr Rao.

TRS leaders are peeved at Mr Laxman Bapuji's attack on their party and
the deeksha venue being used by Mr Rao's rivals to attack him. "We are
not against Bapuji's deeksha for Telangana. But his statements are
against KCR. Those rallying around him are targeting TRS and its
president," TRS MLA Etala Rajender said.

He alleged that most of the leaders present at the deeksha are focused
only on criticising the TRS chief but not on the burning T-issue or
those suffering at the hands of the state government.
"People have clarity. They want Telangana and no one can stop it. Who
is Mr Bapuji targeting by stating 'votulu, notlu and seatlu'," Mr
Rajender wondered. TRS spokesman Jagdee-shwar Reddy said that Mr Rao
has tried to bring all groups on one platform. "There should be one
political force to take up Telangana cause. They should be prepared
for any sacrifice," Mr Reddy said.
