T-JAC Chairman Professor Kodandaram may be in dilemma on how to deal with the Telangana Chief Minister KCR, with whom he worked hand in hand during Telangana agitations period but now was set aside by him. He can’t criticize him as it may send a wrong message to the people that he is doing so because he was ignored by the Chief Minister. At the same time, he can’t prize him and his government as there are several visible problems that need to be addressed by the government. Hence, now and then he criticizes the Chief Minister indirectly and modestly pointing some problems. However, Chief Minister KCR never responds to his criticism indicating that he not even noticing him and his media statements. But, Kodandaram keep shooting shots at him, as if it becomes a routine practice for him.

 

Speaking at a meeting, he said “Telangana state was formed with the collective efforts and fights of lakhs of people and not with any individual or party’s efforts. So, we don’t need anyone’s invitation to celebrate the state formation day. We can celebrate it since we also contributed a lot for achieving it.”

 

“The huge expectations on transforming of Telangana state into a developed state still seem to be a distant dream. Youth have expected lakhs of job opportunities if Telangana state is created. But, they are very much disappointed to see there is no change in the situation even today. The agriculture sector is facing the same problems even today that it faced before bifurcation of the state. Hence, the state government has to review this situation and should take appropriate steps to address all these problems,” said Professor Kodandaram.
