`Congress, TRS creating confusion'

Staff Reporter

HYDERABAD: The Bharatiya Janata Party has accused Congress and Telangana Rashtra Samiti leaders of playing with the sentiments of Telangana people on creation of a separate State.

Addressing a press conference here on Wednesday, the BJP general secretary, K. Laxman, and the official spokesman, S. V. Seshagiri Rao, charged the two parties with confusing people. They were resorting to a war of words on Telangana, ignoring the welfare of people.

They demanded a clarification from the TRS chief, K. Chandrasekhara Rao, on the statement issued by the AICC general secretary, Digvijay Singh, that the TRS leaders had agreed to a second States Reorganisation Commission (SRC).
