LSP flays TDP, Congress tie-ups

Special correspondent

HYDERABAD: The alleged ‘unethical’ alliances sought to be put together by the Telugu Desam and Congress and their ‘opportunistic’ and ‘feudal’ attitudes came in from sharp criticism by Lok Satta on Saturday.

In a statement issued here, Katari Srinivasa Rao, Lok Satta State Executive member, expressed surprise over the efforts of the TDP to have alliances with other parties with the sole motive of securing power, thus giving a go-by to principles and able administration. He charged the Congress with resorting a massive propaganda campaign to cover up its ‘misdeeds’ .
