KCR justifies his interest in elections

When Congress back steps on Telangana issue, everyone has predicted that TRS and T-JAC are going to intensify their agitations. But, to their surprise they both have withdrawn from their fight and become busy with short listing of party candidates for the upcoming elections. KCR said that he is going to declare the first batch of 50 candidates during next month, which triggers lobbying in the party. Hence, except those assured of party tickets like KTR, Harish rao, Kavita etc all other leaders in TRS are busy with lobbying for the party tickets, thus temporarily setting aside their agitations.

KCR responding to this criticism said that taking part in elections is as necessary as of doing agitations. It is one of the path in achieving their goal of Telangana. He said unless there is sufficient strength in the Assembly and in Parliament, the Telangana issue can not be presented with full spirits. They will be able to bring the governments to its knees only when there is enough representation in both houses from the party. Hence, he asked the people to support TRS candidates in the MLC elections.
