Accusing CM KCR of using government employees as a “ political weapon” The BJP leader said that Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is pressuring and threatening union leaders and making them to issue statements against the central government on the issue of IR and DA.

KCR is fulfilling wishes of some employees union leaders from back door to suppress their long pending demands like implementation of PRC and IR and increase of retirement age. These leaders who got benefitted for their relatives are maintaining silence just by submitting memorandums on the pending demands emploees, Rao alleged.

KCR had promised to increase retirement age of government employees during elections. But he forgot his promise given to state government employees and indulged in luring union leaders by satisfying them from back door tactics, Rao alleged.
