Hyderabad: YSRTP Supremo YS Sharmila called TRS leaders and activists are acting like Talibans. Speaking to the media persons on Thursday, outside of the Raj Bhavan after meeting with Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan she said that the TRS leaders are working like as Talibans in Afghanistan.

She explained about the incidents took place on Tuesday,  when she was proceeding to Chief Minister’s official residence in a car damaged in the attack on her convoy by the TRS men in Warangal district the previous day. The police towed away the car with Sharmila in it to a police station.

The Governor had also expressed her anguish over the manner in which Sharmila was arrested. While thanking the Governor, Sharmila urged the Governor to intervene and seek a report from the Home Ministry and the office of the DGP. Sharmila in her representation submitted to the Governor she said that the TRS Government has been trampling the hands that are raised in protest, and strangling the voices that scream in hopelessness.

It was a clear case of subversion and state-sponsored intrusion into the Padayatra that was going on peacefully, she said. Our bus was almost gutted and we luckily escaped from being burnt alive. Our party activists were beaten barbarically and the cops did not even accept our complaint.

The police stood mum while this dastardly act went uncontrolled. Shockingly, they detained and arrested me and brought me to Hyderabad, but the attackers were let off, she said. KCR family is the richest in India. She said Kavitha is involved in Delhi liquor scam. Raids on houses of Kavitha and KTR will yield hundreds of crores, she alleged.

She slammed TRS for calling her Andhraite. She reminded them that wife of Minister KTR is also from Andhra. When you respect his wife, you should also respect me, she said. Sharmila recalled that she was born and brought up in Telangana. I studied here and married here. My past is here and my future is here, she added.
