It's victory of Telangana's self-respect: KCR's nephew

Telangana Rashtra Samithi leader T. Harish Rao on Tuesday described the party's landslide victory as the victory of Telangana's self-respect.

Harish Rao, who is the nephew of TRS President K. Chandrashekhar Rao, told reporters that the poll results showed people of Telangana have won.

"It's people's victory. They have once again upheld the Telangana pride. KCR has proved correct that people will win," said Harish, who retained his Siddipet seat with a record margin.

The TRS leader said people gave a massive mandate to his party as they believed that the state will be safe and prosper under the leadership of KCR.

He said all conspiracies of the alliance led by Congress and the distribution of money and liquor by them failed to defeat the TRS.

Harish said people have taught a befitting lesson to the Congress and other rivals of TRS and at least now they should mend their ways.
