Eatala lashes out at KCR again

Former minister reiterates ill-treatment of Cabinet colleagues by Telangana Chief Minister

Former minister Eatala Rajender, who is facing allegations of encroachment of assignment and endowments lands, has targeted Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for the second day in a row by stating that even Cabinet members did not get an opportunity to go and meet the Chief Minister in Pragathi Bhavan. Speaking to newspersons at Huzurabad on Tuesday before holding a meeting with his followers he said Mr. Chandrasekhar Rao believed in people and righteousness till 2014 but left them immediately after assuming charge as the Chief Minister. Known as ‘Telangana Gandhi’, KCR was acting with vengeance against him based on wrong suggestions and false reports, he alleged. “Instead of targeting me, he (KCR) could have as well called me and told to quit. I would have happily resigned,” Mr. Rajender said and clarified he never aspired to become the Chief Minister but always wished that KCR’s son K.T. Rama Rao would succeed him.
