In a strong counter to Congress leader and former Union Minister P Chidambaram apologising for deaths of Telangana martyrs, BRS MLC K Kavitha questioned why the Gandhi family – Sonia, Rahul and Priyanka, was not apologising for deceiving Telangana for six decades. She said the Gandhi family’s disregard for the agony of hundreds of mothers for over a decade is disheartening.
Chidambaram recently apologised for the deaths of scores of people who sacrificed their lives during Telangana statehood agitation. He termed them unfortunate, but stated that the UPA government cannot be held responsible for their deaths.
