Not Fighting To Be PM But Will Play National Role,” Says Telangana’s KCR

Hyderabad, Telangana: 

Telangana Chief Minister and Telangana Rashtra Samithi chief K Chandrashekar Rao has announced his intention to play a “national role”. Mr Rao – who tried to form a non-Congress, non-BJP front ahead of the 2019 elections – today said he is “not fighting to be Prime Minister but will fight to bring change”.

“A qualitative change is required in the national leadership. Both the so-called national parties have failed. We in fact need a new Constitution. A debate is needed as the Central government has failed to work in the spirit of cooperative federalism,” KCR said at a press conference, post the Union budget, on Tuesday evening at Pragathi Bhavan, the CM’s camp office at Hyderabad.
