Walk The Talk: TRS
Did the Centre violate the protocol for the proposed visit of PM Modi to inaugurate the Ramagundam Fertiliser Factory on November 12?
Is it not an official function? Did the Centre not invite the state govt to participate in the inauguration? Industries Minister Rama Rao said the Centre had sent an invitation for name sake. It appears they do not want the CM to attend the function. Telangana has a share in the Fertilizer Factory at Ramagundam. Hence, the CM should have been the event's main guest next to the PM. But the Union Government had failed to follow this protocol. He demanded that the PM announce release of funds for Telangana before inaugurating the fertiliser factory.
The TRS in a series of tweets said, "People of Telangana are asking the Prime Minister… Sir will you come to Telangana with empty hands or bring something for the state? What will you say about the injustice being done to Telangana? What has happened to the promises made in the AP Reorganisation Act? When will you give the funds recommended by the NITI Aayog?"
The BJP leaders on the other hand say that the TRS was trying to find an alibi to skip the PM's meeting. Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao had avoided receiving PM on many occasions, saying that they were not official functions.
