Why MLAs from other parties are either defecting or attempting to defect into TRS? Why MLAs from other parties are in a hurry to join TRS though it's not even six months they got elected to the new Assembly?
While defected MLAs and TRS leaders claim that they are attracted by the 'development activities and welfare schemes' being implemented by KCR and are joining TRS because of this reason, the ground reality appears completely different.
The ground reality is the 'attractive packages' being offered by TRS.
The 'attractive package' includes cash of Rs 10 crore, contracts worth rupees few more crores, which depend on the capacity of the MLA to bid for contracts, regularisation of their encroached lands and illegal buildings and giving 'political opportunities' to their kith and kin depending on the needs.
Defected MLAs say the TRS package is so tempting that it is difficult for anyone to resist and reject it.
Speculations are rife that Congress MLA Harshavardhan Reddy joined TRS recently after he was assured of immediate payment of Rs 26 crore land compensation that the government owes to him.
This compensation has been pending for the past three years and it got cleared recently after he joined TRS. Not to mention about the other components of 'attractive package' he received for ditching Congress.
Another Congress MLA from Paleru constituency K Upender Reddy joined Congress after his bills worth Rs 50 crore were cleared by TRS bosses.
Upender Reddy is a contractor. His bills are lying pending with the government. They were cleared after he joined TRS.
Similarly, the encroached and disputed lands of few more defected Congress and TDP MLAs are being regularised in return for joining TRS.
KCR, KTR and Kavitha make tall claims of achieving "Bangaru Telangana" under TRS rule.
But the 'bangaram' (gold) in Bangaru Telangana is actually being enjoyed by defectors from other parties into TRS.
Telangana people still did not come out of "Telangana sentiment" ignited by KCR and his family during Telangana statehood agitation even after formation of Telangana State five years ago.
They continue to get blindly carried away by 'false promises' and 'tall claims' of KCR and his family, which is being blatantly exploited by them for their selfish and political gains.
Now, God only should save Telangana from the 'murky politics' of KCR and his family because there is neither a strong Opposition or a strong Opposition leader in Telangana who can fight against TRS or who can open the eyes of Telangana people and enlighten them on the evils committed by KCR and family under the guise of "Telangana self respect' and "Telangana sentiment".
