Distressed farmer Kondaiah who shot into headlines by throwing slipper at Deputy Chief Minister Kadiam Srihari at an election rally on Friday, has now become a hero for Telugu Desam Party, which vows to defeat TRS in the Warangal by-elections.
Telangana TDP senior leader Errabelli Dayakar Rao on Saturday asked all the farmers to emulate Kondaiah and accost the ministers and TRS legislators and teach a lesson by hurling footwear against them.
They also warned that if the government dared to send Kondaiah to jail, they would launch an agitation.
Errabelli said the incident of a distressed farmer Kondaiah hurling a slipper at Deputy Chief Minister Kadiam Srihari proves the farmers were totally fed up with the criminal negligence of the TRS government.
He lamented that there was no response from the TRS government even after they met the Governor and State government over the plight of the farmers.
While the farmers reeled under power crisis in the first year of the TRS government, in the second year, the farmers faced drought conditions. Yet, the government did not bother to declare a list of drought affected districts in the State.
The TDP leaders also alleged that Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who stayed for three days in the national capital also failed to apprise Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the grim situation in the State, but concentrated on wooing a TDP MP into his party.
