Hyderabad, Mar 7 (IANS): With just a week left for elections to two seats of Telangana State Legislative Council, ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and opposition BJP and Congress have intensified their campaign to woo over 10 lakh graduates who are eligible to cast their votes.
The stakes are high for TRS, which is facing a tough task to retain Warangal-Khammam-Nalgonda seat and also to ensure victory of former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao s daughter S. Vani Devi in Hyderabad-Rangareddy-Mahabubnagar constituency.
The major parties and independents are busy in intensive campaign to reach out to graduates for March 14 elections.
‘BJP and TRS didn’t raise single question in Parliament’
Telangana Congress leaders have accused the ruling TRS and the BJP of blaming each other for scrapping the Information Technology Investment Region (ITIR) project but both the parties should apologise to Telangana for failing the project sanctioned by the Congress government.
Senior Congress leader, Shabbir Ali and AICC National spokesperson, Sravan Dasoju said both the TRS and the BJP were in power for the last seven years and after deliberately failing the project they were now enacting a drama of sorts to mislead the people. The ITIR project was sanctioned by the previous Congress-led UPA government in September 2013 to generate nearly 53 lakh direct and indirect jobs. TRS and BJP leaders are shamelessly indulging in blame game over cancellation of the prestigious project, Shabbir Ali said in a media statement.
