Hyderabad, Aug 12 (IANS) Pro-Telangana political parties and groups Thursday urged Andhra Pradesh Governor to sack ministers from Andhra for calling those demanding a separate Telangana as ‘anti-nationals’.
Telangana Joint Action Committee chairman M. Kodandaram, Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) chief K. Chandrasekhara Rao and leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party Thursday met Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan to demand action against the ministers.
Kodandaram told reporters that they urged the governor to sack the ministers for hurting the sentiments of the people of Telangana. ‘If the governor takes no action, then the JAC will decide its future course of action.’
He said the ministers not only made unconstitutional remarks in their representation to the Srikrishna Committee but later denied making them.
KCR, as the TRS chief is popularly known, said the ministers were unfit to continue in their posts.
The ministers in their representation to the Srikrishna Committee last week termed the Telangana movement ‘anti national’, ‘seditious’ and a ‘threat to the integrity of the nation’.
The ministers wanted the demand for Telangana to be treated as cognizable offence.
