TRS leader flays BJP's remarks

By Our Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD Nov. 26. M. Kishen Rao, former Minister and Telangana Rashtra Samithi leader, has criticised the BJP's contention that there was no support for the separate Telangana movement.

In a statement, he said it was strange that the BJP leaders including the Union Minister, B. Dattatreya, were talking in a manner insulting to the people of the region. They were unable to digest the fact that the TRS was getting lot of support in the region.
