Is BJP playing double game on Telangana?

 

It appears BJP is also playing double game on Telangana like Congress party is playing now. Today, BJP Seemandhra leaders have conducted a rally from Andhra Bhavan to Jantar Mantar in New Delhi protesting division of the state. BJP senior leader M.Venakaih Naidu has joined their meeting, where he sharply criticized Congress high command for untimely division of the state.

 

He said “If Congress is really honest, it would do these four-five years ago, instead of taking-up just before the elections. We insist for Telangana creation but not at the cost of Seemandhra peoples’ interests. People of both regions should be justified in all aspects. If, we were in Congress place, definitely we wouldn’t do like this leaving a section of people unhappy. Congress party is dividing the state not for the sake of Telangana people but for its own sake, to be particular for the sake of Rahul Gandhi.”

 

Venkaiah Naidu’s argument may be very correct, but about his party strong assurances given to Congress party over unconditionally supporting the T-bill in the house? Very recently, BJP official spokesperson Nirmala Sitaraman has announced that BJP is still ready to extend an unconditional support to the T-bill. She demands Congress to present the T-bill in the Parliament without any delay. In this context, how Venkaiah Naidu can justify his argument? So, it appears BJP is also playing hide and seek game with Congress party over T-Bill and its rally held today may be part of its game plan.
