KCR Sudden Silence Creates Ripples Among Political Circles

TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao is considered an outspoken man. He never minces words when it comes to criticize his opponents, which sometimes lead to controversies also. He is himself a news personified - Whatever he does or speaks, becomes a news. No wonder that his stoic attitude and silence in recent times is also making a news as well as creating ripples in political circles. What is behind KCR keeping silence nowadays, is the question that is intriguing the people now. Is it a ploy, some kind of strategy or calm before a storm?

KCR’s son and TRS MLA KTR has said that his father's silence was like the 'calm before the storm'. He is silently planning his next strategy, KTR claimed. He might be telling the truth, but this truth may not convince all. People still are left with some unanswered questions. Few question that are left unanswered are - Why TRS chief is maintaining stoic silence on the Telangana issue and rejection of resignations by the Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar? Why KCR always maintained silence on the developments taken place after the intensified Telangana movement was over?

The Congress leaders made statements that the Centre was contemplating constitution of second SRC to sort out the smaller states demand and another statement that T issue would be solved after Bakrid which created confusion among people. As a leader of the TRS, KCR should have responded and thwarted the Centre's attempts to dilute the Telangana issue. Some political observers said KCR did not respond on these confused statements.

The TDP and T Congress leaders feel that the TRS president was confined only to make statements against the opposition and sending messages through SMS to the media criticising the TDP. KCR was also not insisting the Assembly Speaker to accept the resignation of his party MLAs. Other leaders felt that KCR was not serious about resignations. KCR may abruptly start shooting off again in near future, but these questions will remain unanswered forever, say the observers.

 


 

 

Modi Is Not Our PM: Owaisi

MIM is a recognized state political party based in the Indian state of Telangana, with its head office in the old city of Hyderabad, which has its roots in the Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen founded in 1927. Unlike most of the regional and national level parties, MIM party leaders ‘fight’ only for the well-being of Muslims, whereas no other party has such communal feelings. In their each and every speech, MIM leaders speak only about Muslims. If these leaders are here to fight for Muslims, then why there are no development works are happening in old city area for decades. Akbaruddin Owaisi faced criticism for making hate remarks on Narendra Modi and Hindus. Recently, his elder brother Asaduddin Owaisi made some notorious annotations. In a one-on-one debate between BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi on the topic of demonetization in a popular Hindi channel, the former left no stone unturned in exposing the latter’s communal designs. Owaisi claimed how most of the Muslim community still remains unbanked and that demonetization has caused severe inconvenience to Muslims. He even went on to say that ATM’s in Muslim-dominated areas weren’t fed enough money. He indirectly alleged that the Modi government hadn’t done anything for Muslims. Even after being pressurized Owaisi didn’t call Narendra Modi as his Prime Minister. He went on said, “Your Prime Minister…” On the other hand, Sambit spoke wisely and called Owaisi a leader of small stature because he talked only of Muslims. He said that no area was Muslim or Hindu and that all areas belonged to India. Owaisi was constantly quoting an RBI report, to which Sambit challenged him to show where the RBI had used the word ‘Muslim’. Sambit even said that if a Muslim leader speaks of Muslims it’s not an issue, but the moment a VHP leader speaks of Hindus people go crazy accusing them of imposing the Hindutva ideology. The most amazing of his counters was to Owaisi’s claims of Muslims not having been brought into the banking system. Sambit said that when banks or ATMs are to be opened in Muslim areas leaders like Owaisi shout that banking is un-Islamic and that Muslims should refrain from it! This video of debate between Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi is going viral in social media.
