Mohd Ali Shabbir slams BRS over Telangana logo issue
Mohammed Ali Shabbir has accused BRS party of trying to divert public attention from the Kaleshwaram scam and phone-tapping case by protesting against the proposed Telangana's new emblem/logo.
Hyderabad: Congress senior leader and Advisor to the Telangana Government (SC, ST, BC & Minorities) Mohammed Ali Shabbir has accused BRS party of trying to divert public attention from the Kaleshwaram scam and phone-tapping case by protesting against the proposed Telangana’s new emblem.
In a media statement on Thursday, Shabbir Ali criticised BRS leaders, including K. Tarakarama Rao, for protesting over a new emblem that had not been unveiled. “It is ridiculous for BRS leaders to protest over an emblem draft that has not been released to the media,” he said.
He questioned how BRS leaders knew that the Kakatiya Kala Thoranum or Charminar had been removed from the new logo. He accused BRS leaders of trying to incite regional and emotional feelings by making baseless allegations against the Congress Government.
He urged people not to trust BRS propaganda. He said whenever the government felt the need to change the emblem, it would involve everyone. The Congress Government believes in democracy and transparency, he added.
