CM KCR Lost Credibility: BJP
CM KCR has lost complete credibility by constantly indulging in manipulation of facts for petty political expediency and selfish personal gains said BJP chief spokesperson Krishnasagaar Rao.
He said Motor Vehicle Amendment Act 2019 has neither reference to transport corporations nor it recommends privatisation of RTC. CM KCR has blatantly lied to divert attention and shift blame.
RTC Act of 1950 supercedes all acts in reference to administering RTC across India. It has clearly in its provisions, given full responsibility to the state government to appoint a management team to administer the corporation. RTC can't be run by state government directly.
Under the provisions of RTC Act of 1950, no state government can liquidate the RTC without the approval of Central Government. Neither can any state government privitize the RTC unilaterally without the assent of RTC board and employees resolution for the same.
CM KCR is visibly shaken by High Court's active intervention and a possible adverse order against the state government on the 7th November, when the court examines the case as scheduled. It's no secret that he wishes to threaten and blackmail employees of RTC to abandon their fight and rejoin with zero assurances, before 7th November.
BJP strongly believes that people of Telangana have proved their resolve during the separate state-hood struggle and they won't get cowed down by the shallow threats of KCR. He has chosen a path of no return and will pay a heavy price in this gamble he is indulging in.
