KTR, Harish Demand Balka Suman’s Release

The party working president K.T. Rama Rao, senior leader T. Harish Rao demanded the immediate and unconditional release of Balka Suman and said their former MLA was only protesting the “illegal pressure being exerted by minister G. Vivek Venkatswamy on officials in a bid to help Congress grab power in the municipality.

Rama Rao said the police was acting like a private army of the Congress government and warned that every police officer who is kowtowing to Congress leaders now will have to pay a price in the future for their actions now.

“The state is in the grip of power-grab politics evidence of which was also seen in Thorrur, Jangaon, and Zaheerabad municipalities. We demand that the State Election Commission and the Governor take notice of the Congress atrocities and take action on all those involved in such acts,” Rama Rao said in a statement.

Harish Rao said the BRS had a clear majority in Kyathanpally but the Congress actions, led by minister Vivek Venkatswamy, turned the entire election into a mockery. Where ever hung results came in the municipal elections, Congress party had been indulging in kidnaps and luring others to join hands with it. Just as the Congress leaders are grabbing land everywhere in the state, they are now stealing power from legitimate winners,” he said and demanded the immediate release of Balka Suman and action against Congress leaders who were indulging in power grab actions.
