BJP promises Telangana in 100 days if elected

14 November 2008, Hyderabad.
 

Like instant coffee, like instant starch, the BJP promised instant Telangana if elected. Telangana within 100 days was the BJP's promise in its Vijay Sankalp Yatra held yesterday in Parade Grounds in Secunderabad. It was Congress bashing in full flow in the meeting. LK Advani, the BJP president spoke for over an hour and half with a translation in Telugu by senior leader Venkaiah Naidu. 'The period between 2004-2009 can be renamed as Drohkaal. This was the time when the UPA government went back on each and everyone of its promises. We are not chanting the Telangana mantra for electoral gains. We are genuinely for the formation of a separate state and we will see that it is formed within a hundred days if we are voted to power. We request you to give us the required strength. When Chiranjeevi formed a party, I called and congratulated him. 25 yrs ago NTR created a sensation and uprooted the Congress party from its high perch. I really hope Chiranjeevi can do something similar. We are open to working with him, but we need him to be clear on certain issues', said Advani. The meet was pretty well attended, but it was mostly BJYuvamorcha members that were visible. Compared to the recent political meetings held in the state, this might have been a small one, but considering the BJP's current situation in the state, it was a pretty impressive turnout.
