Deputy CLP leader in Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir on Monday dubbed K Chandrashekar Rao as 'U-turn Chief Minister' who frequently changes his 'words' and 'colours'.
Shabbir alleged that KCR was not a man of his words and got habitual of taking U-turns. Citing examples, he said within a day after assuming charge as the Chief Minister of Telangana, KCR called for bandh opposing merger of seven mandals of Khammam with Andhra Pradesh for Polavaram project. However, he silently took a U-Turn and maintained silence while facilitating the Central Government in bringing amendment to the AP Reorganisation Act. Consequently, Telangana lost seven mandals to AP due to KCR's U-turn.
He alleged that KCR tried to incite regional feelings over the issue of sharing of Krishna waters from Nagarjuna Sagar Dam. But the turn of events in the last few days have proved that KCR and AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu were involved in a match fixing. After creating a war-like situation at Nagarjuna Sagar Dam, KCR took a U-turn and surrendered Telangana's interest before Chandrababu Naidu.
"Why KCR did not bargain for energy in lieu of 53 TMC of additional water that AP got from Nagarjuna Sagar? Was KCR was afraid of speaking before his old boss (Naidu)? What led him to take a U-turn in just 24 hours?" asked Shabbir Ali.
Shabbir Ali also questioned KCR's sudden love for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Reminding that KCR had earlier accused Narendra Modi of implementing communal agenda, he said KCR took a U-turn and started praising Modi's style of functioning.
While maintaining a different stand for the last eight months, KCR developed so much of instant love for Modi that he convened a meeting with higher officials asking them to implement Swachch Bharat scheme at all levels.
"There is a hidden agenda behind KCR's U-turn. He is trying to accommodate his daughter and Nizamabad MP K Kavitha in the Union Cabinet," he alleged.
