Telangana: BJP killing federal spirit, says A Revanth Reddy

HYDERABAD: Congress leader A Revanth Reddy has echoed the opinion of chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao opposing Centre’s plans to make amendments in the All India Services (AIS) rules.

“The BJP government is killing the spirit of cooperative federalism by trying to gain control over all IAS, IPS and other AIS officers deputed in the states,” he said on Wednesday.

He said move was an attempt to encroach upon rights of states which were guaranteed in Constitution. He was speaking after unfurling national flag at Congress party headquarters Gandhi Bhavan on the occasion of the 73rd Republic Day celebrations on Wednesday. Revanth, however, alleged that both Modi led government and the state government headed have been adopting anti-people policies.
