Shabbir Accepts Defeat: What Else Can He Do?

Shabbir Accepts Defeat: What Else Can He Do?

Leader of Opposition in Telangana Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir has advised TRS Government to seriously implement all the promises that it made with the people during GHMC elections.

Speaking to media persons in Assembly premises on Monday, Shabbir Ali congratulated the TRS for its historic victory and said in a democracy everyone has to accept and respect the people's verdict.

He said people have given their verdict in favour of TRS apparently with the hope that it would fulfil all the promises.

Referring to Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao's advise that opposition parties should play a constructive role, Shabbir Ali said that the Congress party has been trying to advise the TRS Government on various key issues like drought and farmers suicides. However, he said that the TRS Government appeared in no mood to listen to those advises.

He said that the Congress leaders would continue the policy of constructive criticism to protect the interest of common people.

When asked for reaction on Congress party's dismal performance in GHMC elections, he said there was not enough time for the opposition parties to select proper candidates and run campaign.

List of reserved seats and election notification were issued on the same day while neglecting the practice of giving at least one week gap.

The TRS, which was aware of seats in reserved category, launched its campaign about three months ago and spent crores of rupees on hoardings and other publicity. However, the Congress party was reviewing the reasons that led to defeat and required steps would be taken to rectify the lapses after Narayankhed by-elections.
