HYDERABAD: The BJP state unit on Wednesday demanded minister KT Rama Rao to issue an apology for his remarks about BJP corporators in the GHMC. In a statement issued here, senior BJP leader NV Subhash said that the minister has demonstrated his ‘nasty nature’ by labelling BJP corporators ‘thugs and hooligans.’
Lashing out at KTR for his ‘objectionable’ words, he said that ministers should remember that it is the primary role of the people’s representatives to fulfil the wishes of the people and that because the TRS administration was not providing funds and creating obstacles in the city’s development, the BJP corporators had to protest.
Further, he clarified that the corporators did not break the flower pots and furniture during the commotion at the GHMC office on Tuesday. BJP corporators said on Wednesday that the goods were damaged due to police jostling.
At a press conference on Wednesday, BJP corporator Devanka Karunakar said, “The TRS administration should conduct general body meetings and special council sessions at least now. We did not create any commotion on Wednesday but only condemned the government’s inaction,” he said.
