The Telangana Rashtra Samithi President K Chandrasekhara Rao threatened Andhra government employees to leave Telangana after its formation and go back to their own territory to provide better job opportunity for Telangana residents.
“The government employees of Andhra region should go back to Andhra once the separate state of Telangana is formed. There is no other option. The government needs to function in Andhra so they can go work there and Telangana employees will then have a higher chance of promotions in Telangana as well,” Rao said.
Reacting sharply to Rao’S comment, Andhra Congress leader Lagadapati Rajagopal said, “He has said this many times. They will not just target the government employees, they have promised more than 1 crore jobs. Where will he get them from? This is unjust and unlawful.”
TRS leader and KC Rao’s daughter Kavitha Rao defended her father’s statement.
“Don’t sensalise his statement, he has been misquoted. He did not threaten anyone in his speech,” she said.
Meanwhile, protest continues in many parts of Seemandhra against the decision of bifurcation of the state of Andhra Pradesh.
