Kiran, Naidu enforcing Sonia’s agenda: YSRCP

• They purposefully stayed away from discussion on T
• House should pass Samaikyandhra resolution

Hyderabad: Reiterating its demand that the Assembly should adopt a resolution in favour of keeping the State united, YSRCP on Monday came down heavily on Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu for absenting themselves when the Telangana Bill was tabled in the Assembly. Addressing a press here, YSRCLP deputy leader Shobha Nagireddy alleged that both Kiran and Naidu were implementing the agenda of Congress president Sonia Gandhi over division by not trying to stop the introduction of the Bill.

“We oppose the T Bill outright in the Assembly as we stand for unified State but the Assembly should first take up a resolution to keep the State united,” she said. She said Kiran, who had earlier vowed to obstruct the introduction of the Bill in the Assembly, ran away from his responsibility on Monday. It was now clear that the CM is only a paper tiger and the talk of his fight for keeping the State unified was only a drama. Naidu, Shobha said, could find time to attend the swearing in ceremony of MP Chief Minister but could not find time to attend the Assembly and obstruct the introduction of the Bill.

He was only aiding the CM in implementing the agenda of Sonia, she alleged.
