The State unit of Bharatiya Janata Party on Thursday reviewed the arrangements for the Telangana Poru Deekhsha proposed to be held in the New Delhi from September 3-5.
Addressing the meeting of office bearers of Telangana districts’ office bearers at the State BJP headquarters at Nampally, BJP State president G Kishan Reddy said that the Telangana Poru Deekhsha was aimed at mounting pressure on the Centre over the formation of Telangana State. He also discussed the strategy to be adopted for the successful conduct of Deeksha in the national capital.
Kishan Reddy hoped that the Deeksha would expose the Congress party’s stand towards Telangana. He alleged that the ruling party has been cheating the people on the statehood issue. Further, he said that the Lok Sabha MPs of Congress party from the region too have adopted dual standards and cheating the people of the region.
Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj, NDA Convener Sharad Yadav, former BJP president Rajnath Singh and BJP spokesperson Prakash Javedkar will participate in the three-day Deeksha. Former Deputy Prime Minister Lal Krishan Advani will attend the Deeksha on the concluding day on September 5.
