CPI Worked for People: Sambasiva Rao

Hyderabad: Recalling the 100-year-old history of the Communist Party of India (CPI), MLA Kunamneni Sambasiva Rao said that the party always worked towards fulfilling people’s demands, hopes and aspirations.

Speaking on the occasion of formation day at Zaheerabad, which was also the party’s centenary day celebrations, Sambasiva Rao, said, “The party always came forward and took a stand when people faced hardships due to rise in petrol and diesel prices as well as essential commodities. The CPI also fought for the cause of workers. Our party always sought housing sites for the poor, ration cards, pensions for the aged as well as loan waivers from the different state governments who were helming at that time.”

Several party leaders, including CPI state executive committee members Eeti Narasimha, party’s state member Prakash Rao, Zaheerabad district secretary Jalaluddin, attended the event.
