Spirit of give and take must be guiding principle for heads of new states: BJP

New Delhi: The spirit of give and take should be the guiding principle for the heads of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, who are embroiled in controversies, as the two states formally come into existence tomorrow,

Asked about reports of ‘War Room' set up by TRS, allegedly to drive out public servants, who do not belong to Telangana from Hyderabad, he said that spirit of confrontation has no life in coming days because the larger issue of Telangana creation is now over.

“It is not going to help the country at the national level that two Telugu speaking States, even after bifurcation with war with each other.

How it is going to help in terms of investment, development and prosperity?,” Rao, who hails from Karimnagar in Telangana replied to a query on whether the Chief Ministers of both the States must work “hand-in-hand”.  

He further said that his message was both for TRS Chief K Rao and TDP supremo Naidu. The two leaders are all set to become Chief Ministers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, respectively.

“Not only to KCR, it is a message to Chandrababu Naidu and KCR both,” he added.
