CM's language worse than a rowdy sheeter: Shabbir Ali

Hyderabad, Aug 27 (UNI) Leader of Opposition in Telangana State Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir today alleged that Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao was speaking in a language which is worse than of a 'Rowdy Sheeter'.
Addressing a press conference along with Deputy CLP leader Ponguleti Sudhakar Reddy at the Congress Legislature Party office here, Shabbir Ali strongly condemned the Chief Minister for threatening to send the opposition leaders to jail. "While addressing the celebrations of agreement between Telangana and Maharashtra for construction of irrigation projects on Godavari River on August 24, Mr Rao stoop down to the level of personally targetting TPCC chief Uttam Kumar Reddy. After luring 25 MLAs, 4 MPs and several MLCs into TRS fold, the Chief Minister has turned too arrogant due to the power of corruption money," he further alleged.
Shabbir Ali referred to a recent judgment delivered by Supreme Court Bench in the defamation case of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, wherein the Apex Court has said, “If somebody criticises the policy of the government, if the person criticised is a public figure, he has to face it instead of using the state machinery to choke criticism.” He said that the Chief Minister should at least follow Supreme Court's directives in dealing with opposition leaders. He said Mr Rao's behaviour was not good for a healthy democracy.
