» Telangana People Want Freedom: JAC Convenor Kondandaram
"Telangana People Want Freedom"
Telangana activist Kodandaram said the people of Telangana are not enjoying the fruits of freedom despite the country having achieved Independence a long time ago.
Telangana Political Joint Action Committee Chairman Prof. M Kodandaram on Monday stated that the people of Telangana are agitating for separate statehood as they have no freedom in their homeland.
Talking to media persons after hoisting the national flag and the Telangana flag at the TPJAC office at Adarshnagar, Kodandaram said the people of the region are not enjoying the fruits of freedom despite the country having achieved Independence a long time ago.
In order to fulfil their long-pending demands and aspirations, he said, the people of Telangana have now intensified their agitation for separate statehood.
Kodandaram also took serious exception over the remark of Seemandhra leaders that abstaining from Independence Day celebrations would make people 'traitors of the nation'.
Stating that the people of Telangana have plenty of patriotism, Kodandaram demanded to know of Seemandhra leaders how they invested in the Dubai-based Emmar Properties.
Kodandaram also expressed solidarity with civil activist Anna Hazare, for his anti-corruption crusade in New Delhi. (INN)
