Former Congress MP Dr Mallu Ravi on Friday accused Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao of praising the Last Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan only in view of next GHMC elections.
Speaking to media persons at Gandhi Bhavan here, Mallu Ravi said it was strange that KCR has been praising both the Nizam and the freedom fighters like Kommaram Bheem who fought against Nizam’s rule. While the Last Nizam made a lot of contribution for the development of the erstwhile Hyderabad State, he also had a negative side. He claimed that KCR himself spoke about the attrocities done by Razakars during the Nizam’s rule. However, just in view of GHMC elections, KCR has now started praising the Nizam.
Mallu Ravi asked KCR to either praise Nizam or stand on the side of Kommaram Bheem and other freedom fighters. He said instead of making statements to exploit the sentiments of common people, the Chief Minister should focus on real development of Hyderabad. (INN)
