MIM party president Asududdeen Owaisi and his brother Akbaruddeen Owaisi have met TRS president KCR today. They agreed to extend their party support to TRS party, but reluctant to join KCR’s cabinet.
Later speaking to media they said it was just a formal visit and nothing else. They said that they have asked KCR, who is going to take charge as Chief Minister of Telangana, to include famous Charminar in the Telangana government logo. Their other demands are making Urdu as second official language, bringing Krishna river waters to Hyderabad to meet drinking water shortage, increasing funds to Osmania Hospital etc.
However, the actual purpose of their visit may be to ask whether KCR would like to offer Deputy Chief Minister Post to Asududdeen, as KCR has promised to offer it to a person from Muslim community. However, KCR many not ready to offer it to them because there are many aspirants in TRS itself for that post. Probably, that is why Owaisi brothers decide not to join KCR cabinet.
