Mancherial: BRS candidate Nadipelli Diwakar Rao said that Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao achieved a separate state by following peaceful means on the lines of Mahatma Gandhi who led the Independence movement. Addressing a rally in Naspur mandal centre on Friday, Rao said that Chandrashekhar Rao made the then union government to carve out Telangana state by staging peaceful protests for 14 years.

He further said that People reposed faith in Rao for leading the Telangana movement. union ministers hailed welfare schemes and developmental activities implemented in Telangana. The state is witnessing growth on many fronts even as the union government did not sanction due funds. The credit goes to Chandrashekhar Rao.
