Talking to reporters at Telangana Bhavan, Harish Rao said that the people have lost faith on the TDP and its president N Chandrababu Naidu. Therefore, the TDP candidates would not be able to secure their deposits in the by-elections scheduled to be held on March 18. Reacting to Naidu's statement that the TRS was contesting its last by-elections, he said that TRS would continue to dominate the Telangana politics in future too, but the TDP would be wiped out from the region after the by-elections.
Harish Rao alleged that Chandrababu Naidu was psychologically disturbed and that is why he was making such statements. He said although Naidu speaks for several hours on other issues, he never touched upon the Telangana statehood demand. Ridiculing Naidu's claim that he was not against Telangana, he said Naidu was also not in favour of granting statehood for the region. Instead, he said Naidu has always tried to divert the attention from Telangana issue.

Did Pocharam won to resign? 2011/10/21 5:28:23  Nowadays, contesting elections and resigning the next day has become a child's play for our MLAs and MPs. While, some resign demanding Telangana state, some others resign throwing challenge to their rivals. None of them takes the people who elect them into their consideration before throwing their resignation letters to speaker.
The same way, once an MLA or MP seat in a constituency is vacated, the same political parties put their candidates in the contest to display their influence and command over the people. Banswada bye-elections are one fine example for it.
When, Pocharam Srinivasa Reddy has migrated from TDP to TRS, he has resigned to his Banswada MLA post. Then, once again he has contested in the same constituency on TRS flag and won the elections and once again sworn in as Banswada MLA on Friday.
While rest of his party (TRS) MLAs have slams their resignation letters at speaker long time ago, he sworn-in as new MLA from the same party. In the wake of their resignation letters, will he again resigns to his MLA post or stick to it against his party's policy.
Shall this game of contesting and resigning continue at the cost of public expense? Why the people should elect such leaders who make joke of democratic process? May it be for Telangana cause or some other cause, shall we afford to keep this show on forever? If, so who will be the losers? The leaders or the people who elect them again and again?

Lok Satta defends decision to align with Left parties 2012/5/3 6:47:15 Hyderabad, May 3 (INN): The Lok Satta Party on Thursday defended its decision to have alliance with the Left parties.
According to Lok Satta Party Working President DVVS Varma, the decision to join hands with Left parties was taken as there was no point in replacing one traditional party with another since all of them were steeped in corruption and lost their capacity to address people’s problems. He hoped that the Lok Satta decision would serve as a ray of hope to all people who are now in deep despair over the present state of politics. It is time that all people who aspire for eradication of corruption and resolution of burning problems joined hands, he added.
Varma pointed out that Left parties were divided on the Telangana issue while the Lok Satta has its own stand. It is also true there are differences of opinion between the Lok Satta and Left parties on many other issues. Yet, the Lok Satta believes it can work together with Left parties on public issues over which they shared a common view, he said.
Instead of confining itself to adjustments during elections for seats and votes, the Lok Satta will continue to work with like-minded parties on ushering in corruption-free politics and resolving people’s problems, Varma added.
Varma said that the Lok Satta Party has decided to support CPI(M) candidates in Tirupati and Anantapur as the CPI(M) has decided to back the Lok Satta Party in Ongole by dropping plans to contest from it in the by-elections to the State Assembly on June 12.
The decision was taken by the Lok Satta Party's State Working Committee here today, said Mr. Varma.
As a result of the electoral adjustments, the CPI (M) will support the Lok Satta Party in Ongole, Pattipadu, Rayadurgam and Yemmiganur Assembly constituencies.
The Lok Satta Party in turn will support CPM candidates in Tirupati, Anantapur, Payakaraopet, Udayagiri and Polavaram Assembly constituencies and Nellore Lok Satta constituency.
The Lok Satta Party would consider contesting from Ramachandrapuram and Parakala in the wake of its decision not to field candidates in Tirupati and Anantapur.
Varma appealed to the CPI to back Lok Satta candidates in the by-elections, adding that the Lok Satta would support it if it fielded candidates.Andhra News : Lok Satta defends decision to align with Left parties
