Hyderabad: Describing TRS as a ‘Tiruguleni Rajakiya Shakti’, an unchallenged political force, panchayat raj minister K.T. Rama Rao on Friday said the party’s unprecedented victory in the GHMC polls has ensured that history has been rewritten once again under the dynamic leadership of Chief Minister and TRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao.
“The unprecedented victory in Hyderabad civic polls proved KCR’s mettle, leadership, administrative skills and blessings of Hyderabadis. We won every election with a thumping majority under KCR’s leadership.
Today’s victory has once again proved the confidence approval of the people in KCR’s leadership,” Mr Rama Rao said
He said that the victory means increased responsibility. “We will not ditch the people who reposed such confidence on us,” he said.
Mr Rama Rao, who led the TRS campaign, had continuously maintained that the party will win around a 100 seats, and was promised the additional portfolio of municipal administration.
The impressive victory has led to some TRS leaders saying that Mr Rama Rao has not only proved his mettle in Hyderabad, but is not far off from stepping into the shoes of his father.
Saying that he would humbly bow his head before the people for giving the TRS an unparallel majority, he asserted that the party would fulfill and implement every promise it made.
“We will do what we promised in our manifesto. There will be no deviation from what we have said,” he said.
Mr Rama Rao said Hyderabad would be developed as desired by people of Hyderabad and the TRS would strive for their welfare in all aspects, thanking all those who strived for the party’s victory
“For nearly one month, they toiled for the party day and night. More than that people of Hyderabad, irrespective of caste, creed and religion, blessed us with an unprecedented majority,” he said.
The IT minister said that the Opposition spoke about many things during the election campaign, but with the results, the TRS dominance was now total in the State. “The victory is now ‘total’, public endorsement is now ‘total’, he said
When asked about the challenge thrown by the Opposition, Mr Rama Rao said, “KCR always told us that as we grow, we should be more humble. People are aware of who have made the challenges and their promises. I leave it to their wisdom.”
