Any vote for the so-called Opposition parties in the State, excluding the BJP, is bound to land up supporting the Congress government, this fact was established in the recent no-confidence motion in the Assembly, former MLA K Haribabu said.

Proxies of Congress

The no trust vote was moved by TRS, which is ready to merge into the Congress, and the YSRC which declared that after the 2014 elections it would support the Congress-led UPA government, both the parties are clearly proxies of the Congress. The vote was defeated on the Floor by Telugu Desam. All these actions make it clear where their loyalties stand. The voters are aware that any anti-Congress vote has to be given only to the BJP-NDA, he said at a press conference here on Wednesday.

The party is gearing up to organise its machinery from the grass root level to be ready to face the elections which are a year away.

The voters are aware of the progress being made in the BJP-ruled states and are keen on voting to bring a change in guard, he said.

He lashed out at the Congress government in the State for its lack of foresight leading to such a major power crisis. He ridiculed the State government’s invitation to industrialists while there was no power for existing units. Later, the party leaders and cadre staged a dharna at Siripuram junction in protest against the forceful breaking of fast of BJP leaders in Hyderabad. A number of party leaders were also present.
