Telangana Rashtra Samithi on Saturday celebrated its 18th formation day without any pomp and gaiety, with party president K Chandrasekhar Rao staying away from the celebrations which were held on a very low key.
TRS working president K T Rama Rao addressed a formal gathering at Telangana Bhavan, where he hoisted the party flag.
During his speech, KTR gave a new definition to the TRS. He called it as a “Tiruguleni Rajakeeya Sakthi” (An undaunted political force) in the entire country.
He said the TRS was stronger than ever in the state and it was impossible for any party to challenge its spirit and strength.
He asked the party cadre to work harder to live up to people’s aspirations and expectations, while acting as a bridge between people and their government to realise the dream of ‘Bangaru Telangana’.
KTR recalled the struggle of the TRS president, who along with a handful of other men and women, fought for seperate Telangana state for nearly 14 years.
“Thousands of people walked along with him during the agitation and today, the numbers increased to lakhs of people who are walking along with him in realising the dream of Bangaru Telangana,” he said.
He asked the party leaders to set aside their differences and rededicate themselves to strengthen the party. The party cadre along with those who joined the party in the recent times, should work in complete coordination with each other.
He warned them against getting into street fights and asked them to resolve any difference on the party platforms.
The TRS working president advised them not to give an opportunity for the Opposition parties who were waiting to pounce upon the government, if anything goes wrong.
“People kept their faith in TRS and gave us another opportunity to serve them. We cannot afford to commit mistakes and must rededicate ourselves to live up to people’s expectations,” he added.
