Telangana Chief Minister and Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president K Chandrasekhar Rao on Tuesday claimed he is ready to sacrifice his life to promote peace, harmony and public good in the country.

The Chief Minister, also known as KCR, has been rallying various parties against the alleged anti-people policies of the ruling BJP at the Union government. He alleged the Narendra Modi-led government was stubborn over certain issues and that the BJP should be thrown into the Bay of Bengal if 10% quota for STs and other people's demands are to be realised, news agency PTI reported.

“If the country achieves progress, we can achieve more prosperity. So, we have to move forward to fight for the country. My kind prayer to all of you is, the way we fought for Telangana movement, I am ready to even sacrifice my life, if necessary, to promote harmony, peace and public good in India,” he said as quoted by PTI.

He alleged that the Union government is not paying heed to the Telangana government appeal to recognise ‘Valmiki Boyas’ as STs. Rao has been critical of the BJP and NDA government in recent times. He claimed that the Prime Minister has been sitting on a Legislative Assembly resolution seeking to increase the quota for STs to 10 per cent.

In a bid to bring together various parties against the BJP, Rao had met his Maharashtra counterpart Uddhav Thackeray, NCP chief Sharad Pawar and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin. He said he would make a statement on the unemployment issue in the Legislative Assembly on Wednesday, March 9.
