Hyderabad: Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Friday launched a scathing attack on Telangana Joint Action Committee (TJAC) chairman Prof Kodandaram, his one-time close ally. 

At a press conference a day after the TRS-backed union swept the Singareni Collieries polls, he said Prof. Kodandaram thought too much of himself, when the fact was that he could not win even a sarpanch election.

He accused the TJAC chairman of being anti-TRS from the beginning, and having secret meetings with Congress chief Sonia Gandhi and Digvijay Singh during the 2014 polls where he asked them not to ally with the TRS.

“The pathetic condition of the Congress is because of Kodandaram. He told them that TRS will lose the elections and the Congress will form government. They believed him blindly,” Mr Rao said.
