Congress T-leader and BC Welfare Minister Basavaraju Saarayya has come down heavily on late chief minister. 'YSR is an anti-Telangana leader and phoned me several times to warn me for conduction pro-T meetings', he stressed. He says that he was not given a ministry then only because of opposing YSR's views. Saarayya not only ripped the fame of YSR but also lashed out at TRS. 'When I started a Telangana forum long back, there is no such party called TRS', he highlights.
Observers say that T-agitation is all silent during YSR regime only because of his iron hand in controlling each and every politician from this region. One has to agree with words of Sarayya now, it seems. Anyways, Congress leader Damodar has countered Saarayya's words by saying YSR is never against Telangana formation.
