He said that the State was achieved under the leadership of the leader of the movement KCR after 14 years of tireless struggle and this occasion should be celebrated grandly under the auspices of the party. KTR recalled that the six-decade dream was realised only with the sacrifices of martyrs, the struggles of government employees, students and the collective efforts of all sections of society. Meanwhile, addressing a press conference, BRS MLC D Sravan Kumar said that the Seemandhra rulers exploited Telangana in the undivided Andhra Pradesh. 'Who is the reason for this exploitation? Telangana leaders bowed down for posts and exploited Telangana. KCR came to the Telangana movement in 2001 like a hawk who was shouting that positions were equal to grass. KCR fought for Telangana not in a street fight but in a straight fight,' he highlighted. He said that KCR developed Telangana and made it agrarian by providing pensions, 24-hour electricity, 50 per cent reservation for women in local body elections, crop loans, 12,069 villages, 612 mandals, and 102 municipalities.
