KCR ki reverse trap

Everybody is under the impression that Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrasekhar Rao is taking pro-active steps to muster the support of smaller parties against the UPA government. But the fact is that he is bargaining with the Congress using these parties.

According to reliable information from New Delhi, the TRS president, who had a closed door meeting with Rashtriya Lok Dal leader Ajit Singh, reportedly tried to trap him. KCR asked Ajit to bring pressure on the Congress on giving some assurance on Telangana, as a precondition for supporting the UPA in Lok Sabha on July 22.

However, it turned out to be a reverse trap. Ajit Singh reportedly asked KCR not to blackmail the Congress at this stage and fall a prey to the Communists' game plan. "You support the UPA in Lok Sabha first.

Then, I will talk to Sonia Gandhi to consider Telangana," he is learnt to have said. KCR is seriously considering this offer and might change the tune in the last moment, sources said.
