Naidu plotting for NIT seats, T to move court if necessary: Kadiam

Accusing AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu of hatching conspiracies for NIT seats in Warangal, Deputy Chief Minister Kadiam Srihari today said the TRS Government will move court if AP government gets share of seats against norms.

The Deputy Chief Minister today called on Union Human Resources Development secretary Satyanarayana Mohanty at Delhi and appealed to him to do justice to Telangana students on NIT seats. He complained to Mohanty that Naidu Government has no right to seek a share of the seats after bifurcation and Article 371 does not attract on seat sharing. He also complained that Naidu was making deliberate attempts to seek a share in the seats in the Central institution against norms.

Talking to mediapersons later, Kadiam said the Telangana State government will take on Naidu’s conspiracies against the State. NIT is a Central institution, which used to allot 50 per cent of the seats to locals, he remarked. However, the Chandrababu Naidu government was trying to unlawfully seek a share of the seats, he alleged. Srihari also said since 2007, the seating allocation was on the basis of population and Telangana was getting its due share of 50 per cent seats and the rest as per norms. Srihari exuded confidence that Naidu’s attempts will not get fructified as Article 371 does not imply to share the seats. (NSS)
