YSR Telangana Party Chief YS Sharmila hits out on Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao on Friday, alleging that he was imposing Section 144 in residential areas to thwart protests against his government and questioning whether the state had become a “Taliban-ruled” one.
“You (KCR) are enforcing Section 144 in residential areas to ensure that there is no protest and that we do not oppose the government. Telangana is devoid of democracy “Sharmila told ANI. Sharmila claimed she was not allowed to leave her home to protest at the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) office over the alleged leak of a question paper from a TSPSC recruitment exam on March 5.
The Enforcement Directorate had summoned BRS MLC, the daughter of Telangana Chief Minister in connection with a case involving the Delhi Excise Policy.
She posed several questions, including whether Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao became Chief Minister in order to save his daughter. “Shouldn’t KCR respond to this issue? Is this a hack, or did the BRS leaders do it on purpose? Sharmila explained.
She also claimed that the TSPSC board was involved in the leak of the assistant engineer (civil) recruitment exam and that a simple SIT investigation would not suffice.
“It appears that there is a paper leak. The board of the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) is involved. We have no idea who is involved. An SIT investigation will not suffice. We demand an investigation by the CBI and sitting judges otherwise the truth will remain hidden,” She stated.
Section 144 was imposed in the TSPSC’s surrounding areas on Tuesday, according to the police.
