What Happened To Telangana 'Liberation' Day?

Prior to bifurcation, the Telangana leaders cried hoarse with slogans like ‘The Andhra settlers are trying to wipe out the history of Telangana separatist struggle. Let them give us power to rule ourselves and we will show what we can do. Once the separate state is formed, we will celebrate the Telangana liberation day’. 

Now, the very people have come into power, but nothing is being done to celebrate the ‘liberation’ of Telangana. So it is time the ruling party in Telangana gave an explanation about its ‘no action’ stand.

Incidentally, today is the day when thousands of Telangana people died fighting for freedom. It is the very day when they got freedom from the Nizam’s rule.

But Telangana ruling party has conveniently ignored to celebrate the day and remember the martyrdom of many freedom fighters.

This is drawing lots of criticism from opposition parties who say that the present ruling party in Telangana also perpetuates the ‘dora’ culture which is what Nizam’s rule was all about. Wonder what TRS will have to say about this?
