Condemning the
statements made by Telangana Rashtra Samithi leaders seeking a ban on celebrations of Andhra Pradesh Formation Day in the Telangana region, Minister for Health and Family Welfare Danam Nagender on Wednesday termed them as unwarranted.
Talking to media persons, Danam stated that the government will not bow down to such pressure tactics and would celebrate the Formation Day across the state as usual on November 1.
"These pressure tactics will not serve any purpose, that too, at the time the Srikrishna Committee is due to submit its report," he said.
Danam also criticized Telangana leaders for calling it 'Betrayal Day'.
"The government will not force anybody to participate in the celebrations. Those interested, and the patriotic, will participate voluntarily," the minister stated.
Referring to the APIIC-Emaar issue, Danam said the government has not compromised on recovering the loss from the dubious deals.
"The CM and the APIIC are making efforts to recover its share of property from Emaar Properties. There is no need to resort to making baseless comments alleging the CM's involvement in the dubious land dealings," he stated.
