Will KCR honour Konda Lakshman Bapuji?

Congress MP V Hanumantha Rao on Monday demanded that the Telangana Government officially celebrate the birth anniversary of freedom fighter late Konda Lakshman Bapuji.

Speaking to media persons at the Congress Legislature Party office here, VHR said that Bapuji was a Telangana ideologue and served as an inspiration for the movement seeking statehood for Telangana region.

He requested Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to announce the official celebration of Bapuji's birthday as it was done in the case of Prof Jayashankar.

VHR also demanded that chapters on the lives of freedom fighters like Prof Jayashankar and Bapuji should be included in the syllabus to educate the young generation about the struggle and sacrifices made to achieve Telangana State.

The Rajya Sabha MP also claimed that the BJP-led NDA Government has lost its shine within 100 days of coming to power.

He said that the ruling party suffered several jolts in three by-elections held in the last three months. He said that the people across the country, including Gujarat, have voted in favour of Congress party in the bye-elections.
