Amaravati: Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan made a scathing attack on the Telugu Desam Party saying it was losing moral high ground at the Centre over the special category status (SCS) and warned that it had no right to compromise on the issue.
Noting that TDP's silence on SCS was disheartening, Pawan Kalyan on Thursday told the party not to mortgage the self-respect of the people of Andhra Pradesh with the Centre even as he lauded YSR Congress and the Telangana MPs for backing the SCS demand.
“The TDP does not have the right to compromise with the Centre on the promised SCS. People voted TDP-BJP into power, trusting they would accord SCS. I request TDP not to mortgage the self respect of people for 'your personal benefits',” the Telugu superstar said in a series of tweets.
“It's quite disheartening to see Union minister Ashok Gajapati Raju's silence and the absence of TDP MPs in Parliament, when the discussion on special status to AP came up.” he remarked.
“YSRC MPs are doing a commendable job in pursuing the SCS demand. My whole-hearted thanks to (Telangana) MPs Kesava Rao and Rapolu Ananda Bhaskar for their support for SCS to AP,” he added.
