Rules are meant to be flouted than to be followed. This seems to be the dictum of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi leaders in Telangana.
At a time when TRS president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has given strict warning to the people not to assemble in big numbers at one place and ordered closure of all bars and pubs, his own party leaders cared a damn for his suggestions and orders.
In Warangal, a senior TRS leader attended a wedding of a local businessman having travel history to France.
The man came from France on March 12 and got married at a grand function in the town which was attended by more than 1,000 people.
A former Telugu Desam Party MP, presently in TRS, also attended the party along with scores of followers, knowing fully well that the groom had jumped the quarantine and got married. The district officials, however, managed to get his marriage reception cancelled.
A couple of days ago, hundreds of TRS leaders belonging to Nizamabad, including MPTCs and ZPTCs, were hosted a huge part at a resort on the outskirts of Hyderabad on the occasion of the elections to MLC elections under Nizamabad local bodies’ quota.
Apparently, the party was thrown at the behest of TRS candidate Kalvakuntla Kavitha, though she was not present at the party. A video of the party is doing rounds in the social media for the last few hours.
Some of the TRS leaders who attended the party had also taken selfies and posted them in social media. It remains to be seen what action KCR will take on his own party leaders!
