Karimnagar: Gird up your loins, Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan told his followers, gearing them up for what he calls a ‘long journey’. In his opening remark, addressing his followers on Tuesday, he reiterated why he had to start his political campaign from Kondagattu. If Andhra had given me birth, it was Telangana that gave me rebirth, he said, expressing his affinity and attachment for the region, its people and their dialect.
“Jai Telangana slogan inspires me as much as Vande Mataram. The slogan signifies Telangana people’s struggle and their perseverance,” he said. Elaborating his party’s seven-point principle, he said there was an imperative need for understanding the role of caste in Indian politics, thus breaking the tradition of power being restricted to some upper castes.
“Social justice is not just all about giving political space to all castes but allowing the entire communities flourish on par with that of already developed,” he said. Dwelling at length on his party line, he mentioned the need for secular politics, fight against corruption, protection of culture, nationalism with due respect to regionalism etc. Further, Pawan Kalyan said he would announce his party line and activity before March 14.
“Telangana is just about four-year-old, and it needs to be fostered. At the moment, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, whom I like immensely, is adept in dispensing good governance,” Pawan Kalyan said. He said the Jana Sena Party would like to play constructive politics.
The party would not only point out the loopholes in the governance but also try to provide solutions, he said, asserting that his party would contest 2019 elections in both AP and Telangana. “I may differ with the present establishments in AP and Telangana, but it’s not my style of functioning to make an issue out of everything,” the actor-politician said.
Referring to the recently held World Telugu Conference, he justified the Telangana government ignoring the AP poets, stating that it was not the act of belittling it, but it could be an effort to highlight Telangana dialect that faced decades of ignominy.
