Sonia sheds crocodile’s tears

UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi’s emotional rhetoric (Throw out TRS govt: Sonia, THI, Nov 24) is not going to help the Congress in the upcoming elections in Telangana. There is not even an iota of truth in the charges levelled by the Congress leader. 

People of Telangana have not forgotten the way the Congress cheated Telangana and its people. It is a party that insulted Telangana’s son of soil PV Narasimha Rao by denying a resting place for him in Delhi on par with other Prime Ministers. 

And Sonia Gandhi is crying foul over the TRS governance conveniently forgetting how the grand old party ill-treated the people of the State. Successive Congress governments had robbed the State of its share of water. 

It is the TRS government that is on the processing of making vast stretches of parched lands into fertile one through its myriad flagship programmes. The UPA chairperson should stop spreading lies and shedding crocodile’s tears. 

No doubt, K Chandrashekar Rao will be made Chief Minister with brutal majority this time, too.
