Didn’t BRS know origin of Samantha and Rakul Preet?
"Why is the BRS opposing the representation of Martyrs Memorial in the state emblem of telangana, which was formed due to the sacrifices of martyrs?" the congress leader questioned during a news conference held today.
Mahesh also criticised the BRS for opposing to the state government's choice of oscar winner MM keeravani to provide the music for the telangana state anthem, Jaya Jaya Hey Telangana.
"Keeravani was chosen by Ande Sri to write the melody for the telangana anthem. The state government did not make that choice, Mahesh continued.
He claimed, "KCR and his family used the telangana sentiment for their personal gains," accusing BRS president k chandrasekhar rao of inciting telangana feeling with his hateful anti-Andhra stance.
"We have chosen the symbols which represent the true spirit of telangana movement and the sacrifices made by the people," senior congress leader Mallu ravi stated in the interim.
Vice-chairman of the AICC Adivasi Cell Bellaiah Naik questioned why someone who identifies as tribal, like him, can embrace Kakatiya Kala Thoranam, a representation of Kakatiya monarchs who slaughtered the tribal gods Sarakka and Sammakka.
